I have an announcement to make.
Honey Crisp Apple Cider is THE BEST AUTUMN PRODUCT at
Trader Joe’s. Hands down. The BEST.

| My newest love, Honey Crisp Apple Cider (it's an affair rekindled from last autumn...) |
Oh sure, you may think, “But Susan!! What about pumpkin this, or pumpkin that… Trader Joe’s is chock full of pumpkin
flavored stuff this season!!”
Well here is what I have to say about that: PUMPKIN FLAVOR IS THE KARDASHIAN FAMILY OF
THE GROCERY STORE. It is
over-exposed. It’s toooo popular. It has become passé and boring. (Plus it has a big butt, but perhaps I am
taking this metaphor too far…)
 |
| Butt seriously... |
HONEY CRISP APPLE CIDER IS WHERE IT’S AT, MAN!
 |
| This is the one you want. Put some in your cart. Buy it. Then DRINK IT. |
This stuff is insanely delicious. It is crisp, simple, and delightful. You can drink it cold for breakfast and it is
great. Or you can heat it up and drink
it warm – but if you do that I must warn you that you may well become addicted
and “need” it every afternoon or evening…
I speak from experience… (She typed, then paused to take a sip of the steamy
hot beverage…)
We went through two bottle of this variety of Honey Crisp
Cider and then I decided that, to be fair, we ought to try a bottle of TJ’s
Spiced Cider. The Honey Crisp blows the Spiced
stuff out of the water. I may review the
Spiced Cider at a later date, but for now let’s just say, it tries too hard. Honey Crisp, on the other hand, doesn’t need to try, cuz it is already all that!
 |
| Don't pass up a little sample of it if your TJ's has it on offer, but it's even BETTER at home! |
One evening I heated some Honey Crisp Apple Cider up and
added a bit of Puerto Rican rum! That was
also good. Not BETTER than just the
plain cider, but good in a different way.
It will be fun to drink it like that on cold winter nights when we have the
fireplace going.
If you can only buy one seasonal product this year, get
this one. As a matter of fact, you might
wanna just pick up two jugs when you go, because you will get through that
first one really quickly.
 |
| This sign didn't match the rest of the signage. My theory is the stocker was so ecxited to put it out on the shelves (cuz it is so yummy) that he/she couldn't wait for an official sign to be made. |
Price – $2.99 (and worth every penny)
Rating – 5
