Hot [[mulling spices|mulled]] cider, similar to "[[wassail]]", is a popular autumn and winter beverage.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://allrecipes.com/HowTo/Warm-Up-with-Mulled-Wine-and-Cider/Detail.aspx|title=Warm Up With Mulled Wine & Cider|publisher=Allrecipes.com|access-date=2015-05-09|archive-date=2011-07-13|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110713224017/http://allrecipes.com/HowTo/warm-up-with-mulled-wine-and-cider/detail.aspx|url-status=dead}}</ref> Cider is heated to a temperature just below boiling, with [[cinnamon]], [[zest (ingredient)|orange peel]], [[nutmeg]], [[clove]]s, or other [[spice]]s added.

[[Rosé]] apple cider can be obtained using red-fleshed [[applecrab]]s.

"[[Cider doughnut]]s" traditionally used the yeast in raw cider as a [[leavener]]. Today they are sometimes sold at cider mills and roadside stands, though there is no assurance natural cider is used. Visiting apple orchards in the fall for cider, doughnuts, and self-picked apples is a large segment in [[agritourism]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://web.georgia.org/net/content/go.aspx?s=18348.0.26.3011 |title='Orchard Alley' in Georgia |publisher=Georgia.org |access-date=2015-05-09 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090531194216/http://web.georgia.org/net/content/go.aspx?s=18348.0.26.3011 |archive-date=2009-05-31 }}</ref><ref>{{cite web|title=Massachusetts agri-tourism guide|url=http://www.mass.gov/agr/massgrown/agritourism_farms.htm|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20040604103012/http://www.mass.gov/agr/massgrown/agritourism_farms.htm|archive-date=June 4, 2004|access-date=2015-05-09|publisher=Mass.gov}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://mediacentre.canada.travel/content/travel_story_ideas/fall_apple_picking|title=Orchard tourism in Canada|publisher=Mediacentre.canada.travel|access-date=2015-05-09|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130425072656/http://mediacentre.canada.travel/content/travel_story_ideas/fall_apple_picking|archive-date=2013-04-25|url-status=dead}}</ref>
