Hi, Cider question

[Tzneentch]

HI, first time here and had a look at a few of the posts already and got some great information

The "Cider Kit" I purchased had a cider syrup tin which explains the recipe and what to add, and the instruction sheet I was given are different when is comes to bottling the brew.

I was given a pack of carbonation drops (2 per 750ml bottle as in the instructions) but on the cider syrup tin mentions nothing regarding the carbonation drops but says to add 1 teaspoon (6 grams) of sugar per 750ml bottle.

So do I add both the carbonation drops and the tea spoon of sugar?
or just the carbonation drops?

Thanks in advance
Matt

No, not both.
Either the sugar, or the csrbonation dropd.
Glad you are asking, as you could be in for a nice experience (not) if you use both!

Yep as above. The carbonation drops are just pre measured sugar in a convenient format.
