making tc taste better

[toplad]

seems like a lot of people are struggling to get great tasting TC.
most people that have tasted my TC rate it really highly..


i use lidl apple juice mix of cloudy and concentrate.
mix in sugar approx 450g to 20l

ferment with champange yeast until fermentation has finished.
because it tastes dry and lack apple taste i then sweeten up using apple cordial.

abv should be around 8 to 10%


and tastes like a proper scrumpy..

to my taste the best Turbo Cider that i have done was the first. ASDA Smartprice Apple Juice and Youngs Champagne Yeast, no extra fermentables and overprimed. Fizzy, appley and gorgeous.

Got to say i haven't met a turbo cider i didn't like yet, tried a few will try a few more.

What % did that come out at? I'm thinking about making one without additional sugars as my first one is very strong not that I mind but it would be nice to have something I can drink daily that tastes sweet.

5.7% and 6% with batches 1 and 2. But can honestly say that the first batch was better, overprimed and subsequently too fizzy but fantastic.
