My New Favorite—Michelob ULTRA Light Cider



017edited

You all know how much I enjoy a cocktail or a cider every now and then. You might not know that I secretly wished I could enjoy it more often though. Why don’t I enjoy one more often? Because the swim suit season is coming up soon.  So, I better watch my calories in-take, including those calories that come from drinks. Hey, I may not dare to put on my bikinis again, but I definitely want to look great in my 1 piece swimsuit, at least. The good news is, I met my new love—Michelob ULTRA Light Cider!

With one-third fewer calories (120) compared to traditional ciders, I feel a lot better to enjoy my cider more often. You might not have heard of Michelob ULTRA Light Cider before because it’s a new product from Anheuser-Busch, that has just became available nationwide since a month ago, yay! I’m doing my happy dance here. They are available in six-packs of 12-ounce clear glass bottles like the one shown in the picture above.  To check the availability in your area, please visit Michelob’s site here.

After a long day of hard work, I love to unwind and reward myself with a refreshing cold drink to wash away the hassles and headaches of the day. Because this cider is naturally sweetened from crisp apples, the hint of sweetness is perfect and not overwhelming.  I can definitely taste the crisp and refreshing aroma from the apples. It’s mellow, light, and simply wonderful. It’s naturally gluten-free too. Don’t you love that?  This cider really is everything that a girl who enjoys life and drinks, can ever ask for at the end of a long day. Okay, maybe I also need a pat on the shoulder and a kiss from my loved ones as well. Seriously, I’m in love with this Michelob ULTRA Light Cider.

I tried this cider straight from the bottle and also over ice on a super hot day; both are wonderful and just as refreshing. As you can see, I took it with me all over the place, the yard, and the patio and the pool side. Those are my favorite places to relax and enjoy a few quiet moments.  

And yes, those are my big fat toes in the picture below. Sorry if that is distracting; simply look to the right for a more delightful sight!
