We begin at Thompson's Cider Mill in Croton-on-Hudson, known for some of the best apple cider and apples in the Hudson Valley.
Since 1976, the family-owned business has been growing its own apples with countless varieties to choose from.
"What we offer here is unique," says owner Greg Thompson, "It's on a smaller scale but we are able to customize what we sell here."
That means you can try different kinds of apples that you won't find in many places, and that includes their cider.
In fact, some that you sip can contain more than 20 different varieties of apples, blended on-site into crisp liquid gold.
