A limited-time cider made with real blood orange juice and a touch of rosemary, perfect for cooler evenings ahead.
OAKLAND, CALIF., SEPTEMBER 3, 2026 — Today,
Sincere Cider, a California craft cidery known for its clean, dry ciders made from a special blend of culinary apples, announced the release of Blood Orange, its newest fall/winter seasonal cider. The dry apple cider, infused with blood orange juice and fragrant rosemary, is available starting today on the Sincere Cider website and in stores throughout California. The release marks the cidery’s latest seasonal offering, continuing a lineup built around bold, small-batch flavor pairings.
“With Blood Orange, we wanted to bring a little warmth into the colder months,” said Bex Pezzullo, Founder and Cidermaker, Sincere Cider. “The rosemary adds just enough spice to balance the citrus, and it’s become one of my favorite ciders we’ve made.”
Blood Orange is a dry apple cider infused with the juice of blood oranges and a light touch of rosemary. It comes in at 5.9% ABV with 8 grams of sugar per can, and like all Sincere Cider releases, it’s naturally gluten-free and vegan with no added sugar. The cider is available in 16-packs of 16oz cans for $56.00, sold both online at sincerecider.com and through Sincere Cider’s retail partners across California. Starting September 1, Sincere Cider is also offering a shoulder season combo pack, split evenly between its summer Peach release and the new Blood Orange, giving drinkers a way to transition between seasons.
Each Sincere Cider seasonal release also supports the brand’s ongoing wildfire restoration efforts in California. For every case of seasonal cider sold, Sincere Cider plants a tree in a California burn scar, a program that has resulted in more than 10,000 trees planted to date. The brand also plants an additional tree for every social media post it’s tagged in, extending the impact beyond each purchase.
Sincere Cider began as a hobby out of an Oakland garage before growing into a professional cidercraft operation. Its ciders are made with a blend of culinary apples sourced from Washington’s Yakima Valley, then fermented dry and cultivated and canned in California. Blood Orange joins the brand’s rotating seasonal lineup, following its summer Peach release, and reflects Sincere Cider’s continued focus on distinctive, small-batch flavor combinations for its core audience of California cider drinkers.
