Finnriver's Black Currant Apple Cider

Sherbet is the perfect vessel to bring the delicate flavors of Finnriver’s “Autumn Blush” cider to the Salt & Straw menu. Inspired by the French-style Kir cocktail, it’s a crisp, half-dry cider with layered earth tones and a lighthearted sweetness. We blend it with our 4.5% fat sherbet base for a quick, intense hit of the fruit-forward flavor, but with enough cream to keep the dark, jammy black currant lingering on your tongue.

We further highlight Finnriver’s sparkling cider by using it in house-made pâte de fruits. We simply blend the cider, pectin and sugar together to make the gummy candies, then hand cut them into small squares to stir into the sherbet.

Every day, Finnriver asks, “How can we serve the land with cider?” Located in the remote Chimacum Valley in Washington, Finnriver is a certified B corp, organic farm, orchard, and cidery. Their orchard features 6,000+ organic heirloom and traditional cider apple trees, which protects the genetic diversity and cultural heritage of these old varieties. They blend traditional apple fermenting practices with innovative techniques to produce premium, award-winning ciders. We pay tribute to Finnriver’s incredible black currant and apple “Autumn Blush” cider with this sherbet.
