Hey folks, new guy looking to try some cider soon. Went to walmart today, didnt see any juice or cider that said " No Preservatives" :confused:. What do I need to look for on the label to know what I need to stay away from? would like to try a cran-apple may be any suggerstions??? thanks
 
Sorbate is one of the most common preservatives, and that is one you need to stay away from. Most juices have something like, "apple juice concentrate, water, ascorbic acid" on the ingredients list. If it says "sorbate", then it won't ferment.
