Our BEST Blueberry Cider Recipe!
This is our best blueberry cider recipe. Super easy, VERY delicious. We have made many blueberry brews, and the last cider had an off smell. We can only guess it’s due to the oak we used not being fully “disinfected”. So… we tried a different approach, no campden tabs, and no oak. I won’t spoil it for you but… this is a really good blueberry cider!
