Cidona

Cidona

Cidona is a popular non-alcoholic beverage that originated in Ireland. It is an apple-based soft drink that has been in production since 1955. Cidona is often compared to apple cider, but it is not fermented and contains no alcohol. It is produced by Bulmers, a company known for its cider production.

History

Cidona was first produced in 1955 by the company Bulmers. The drink was initially marketed as a non-alcoholic alternative to cider, and it quickly gained popularity in Ireland. Over the years, Cidona has maintained its popularity and is now available in several countries around the world.

Production

The production of Cidona involves the use of apples, which are crushed and pressed to extract the juice. The juice is then carbonated and sweetened to create the final product. Unlike cider, Cidona does not undergo a fermentation process, which means it does not contain any alcohol.

Taste and Consumption

Cidona has a crisp, sweet taste that is similar to apple cider. It is often consumed chilled and can be enjoyed on its own or mixed with other beverages. In addition to its original apple flavor, Cidona is also available in a variety of other fruit flavors.

Health Aspects

As a non-alcoholic beverage, Cidona is a suitable drink for individuals of all ages. It is also free from artificial colors and flavors, making it a healthier alternative to many other soft drinks. However, like all sweetened beverages, it should be consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
