I made a dry hopped cider. I used 1.0 oz of Citra in the secondary for a week or so.
I just used a hop bag and weighed it down with a sanitized pyrex bowl so the hop bag would sink to the bottom.

It is delicious!

I started dry hopping another 5 gallon batch today.
 
I did something similar. Made a more-or-less standard batch of cider, then dry hopped it, I think I did a couple ounces of fresh Cascade hops from my home garden. (Don't have the notes right in front of me.)
Going to have to try that again, had an infection I killed off with Campden, though I didn't let it blow off enough, so the whole batch has a sulfury taste and aroma.
IN retrospect I should have let it go, and see what happened. May have ended up with a sour cider.
