Thatchers Cloudy Lemon Cider has a flavour profile inspired by the great outdoors. Every batch is suffused with the excitement of summertime at Myrtle Farm in Somerset, with its 500 acres of beautiful orchard.

By combining the zesty taste of real lemons with the sweetness of refreshing dessert apples like Braeburn, Gala and Red Spur, the Thatcher family offers drinkers a taste of life at their farm. A single sip offers you a glimpse of long summer days spent plucking apples from sunny orchards buzzing with wildlife. 

The Thatcher family have been making cider for four generations now – it all started with William John Thatcher in 1904. A whole lot of history has happened between then and now, but lovers of cider have always been able to count on Thatchers to make new and exciting drinks.

As a family, the Thatchers have passed down tips and tricks of the cider making craft through the generations. But beyond that, through the years they have always kept the spirit of adventure alive – every new member of the family is free to introduce fresh ideas into the mix.

This exquisite cider is guaranteed to be a smash hit at picnics and barbecues. Its enlivening yet subtle flavours make it a great companion to summer dishes.

Plus, while Thatchers Cloudy Lemon Cider is great when used as a mixer (see the recipe below), it’s also delicious on its own, especially when chilled. Having a can packed with flavour gives you the freedom to embark on spontaneous picnics at a moment’s notice.

If you like Thatchers Cloudy Lemon Cider then you will love Thatchers Rosé. It’s an incredible sparkling pink cider that comes in bottles or cans and is made with Gala, Cripp’s Pink and Fuji apples, all of which lend the tipple their rosy-red colour and deliciously sweet, fruity flavours.

Best served chilled, this scrumptious beverage is wonderful on its own and is also great in cocktails, especially when mixed with gin!
