A glass of cider might be more effective than an apple a day at keeping the doctor away, scientists believe.

That shit in the photo ain't cider. That's apple juice. Cider is a nice shade of tan, and you certainly can't see throw it (like milk).

from wiki: "For instance, in Pennsylvania, apple cider is legally defined as an "amber golden, opaque, unfermented, entirely non-alcoholic juice squeezed from apples". - It is made of win and tasty.

So now we have to throw boiling hot apple cider at the doctors?

Darn it, wasn't throwing apples at them enough already? :neutral:

To quote Ned Flanders: "If it's clear and yella (i.e. yellow), you've got JUICE there fella. If it's muddy and brown you're in CIDER town."

i think it means alcoholic cider, rather than 'apple cider'. it refers to scrumpy, which is alcoholic, and tastes a "bit" mingy.
in bristol is a brilliant cider house known as the coronation tap. they sell one which is 19%+ ABV, and they only in half-pints.

does an apple really keep the doctor away?.. would apple cider be much different?

To my knowledge, food/drinks that're fermented are always full of goodness than the original product. (Kimchee'd be a fine example)
