Peninsula Cellars' Pucker Up

Bottoms Up

Peninsula Cellars Winery on Old Mission Peninsula makes plenty of great wine, but when we visit the old red-and-white schoolhouse, it’s hard to resist ordering a glass of cider. They usually have a half-dozen selections available—all made from 100% Michigan apples—and the perfectly purple-pink Pucker Up will have you raising your hand with all the right answers. This cider gets its distinctive hue and slightly sweet, slightly tart flavor thanks to an infusion of fresh raspberries, making it a perfect pick for summer sipping. In our gradebook, enjoying a refreshing pour while looking out over the centennial farm or the peninsula’s rolling hills is worthy of an A+. Grab a six-pack for $17.99 or enjoy a tasting flight at their tasting room at 11480 Center Rd. in Traverse City. peninsulacellars.com
