Sea Cider Temperance Bonnie Cider
Sea Cider Temperance Bonnie is a sparkling 0.0% non-alcoholic cider from Vancouver Island, crafted with British Columbian apples, blackberries, lavender, and mint. Deep plum in the glass, it opens with ripe blackberry and fresh apple, followed by a delicate floral lift from lavender and a cool touch of mint. The balance is sweet and tart rather than sugary, with gentle bubbles and very little astringency — juicy, refreshing, and just complex enough to keep things interesting.
Why We Love It
Bonnie has that lovely balance of fruit and botanicals that makes a simple sparkling cider feel much more grown-up. Blackberry gives it richness and gorgeous color, while the lavender and mint keep it fresh and aromatic. We especially reach for it when we want something celebratory and easy to love without sacrificing a little complexity.
Especially good with: baked Brie with blackberry preserves, goat cheese crostini, roast chicken with herbs, a summer berry and chèvre salad, cheesecake, or lemon panna cotta with fresh berries. Sea Cider particularly recommends Bonnie with cheesecake and other creamy desserts.
