Cider is so ridiculously easy to drink. A pint of bulmers with tons of ice in a glass... it's just instantly summer.
I'm not really a fan of apple cider though. I'll drink it but... meh. I like the pear ones, particularly Kopparberg... although my favourite is a Raspberry limited edition one that Kopparberg JUST brought out. try it if you haven't already, it's delicious and RIDICULOUSLY drinkable, and unlike their strawberry and lime one, doesn't have that slightly sickly overly sweet taste (although admittedly I still like the strawberry)
