With winter fast approaching, Clackamas, Oregon based Portland Cider Co. is all set with two wintertime cider releases. Look for the brand-new Cranberry Mule Cider and fan-favorite Santa’s Sauce are launching just in time for the holiday season.

Cranberry Mule is Portland Cider’s newest creation, offering ripe cranberry flavors over subtle apple notes with bright, juicy lime and a hint of fresh ginger. It pours a gorgeous ruby hue, adding a vibrant sparkle of color to any festive occasion. Delicious as a cocktail stand-in, or alongside your favorite wintertime foods.

Santa’s Sauce, a taproom favorite for almost a decade, is returning this winter in limited 16-ounce cans. This festively spiced cider is made with Northwest apples, and infused with cinnamon, cardamom, and a touch of cayenne pepper. It’s spicy and warm, pairs well with roasted turkey and sweet potatoes, and is perfectly suited to holiday desserts like gingerbread, eggnog cheesecake, or apple pie ala mode.
