$2 single from the Filling Station in Nashville. Obvious low expectations. Double checked & it is a cider with raspberry & tea added.
Pint glass at home. Clear, cliche raspberry-tea, wispy head pour.
Strong raspberry candy nose, light veggie astringency with a hint of apple concentrate.
Raspberry candy over some solid Lemon Lipton Brisk. Bittersweet leaning sweet. Malic acid, chem & some light grape drank notes. This drinks better than expected, mostly because I can't taste much of their horrible cider.
Frothy, tart, artificial & kinda refreshing when cold.
Solid desperation move. Obviously the best thing they've ever produced.

Raspberries dominate the aroma with the apples and tea in the background. The flavor is led more by the tea. It's somewhat sweet but the tea seems to cut the sugar some, yielding a more balanced flavor. I'm not totally sold on the cider with tea added combo, but it works better than I expected.
