Colonial Americans drank apple cider for several reasons, primarily due to its availability and safety compared to water. Apples were widely cultivated, and cider was easier to produce and store than fresh apples. Additionally, the fermentation process made cider a more palatable and safer option, as it reduced harmful bacteria. Cider also served as a social beverage and was often consumed in various social settings.
