just pour 1/3 to 1/2 a glass of apple juice and pour the cider over it to serve. The higher alco content in the cider will keep it from spoiling in storage. Cider is simple and beautiful, no need to work too hard on it. Maybe add a few ice cubes to the glass before pouring over them.

I don't want to add lactose or artificial sweeteners etc so i end up with a dry cider using berri preservative free apple juice and WY4766 (cider yeast). I do exactly as practicalfool suggests when people complain my cider is dry. Some ice cubes, a good splash of apple juice (sometimes cordial - lemon or raspberry) and fill up with the dry cider. I've even been known to do this for myself when the mood arises.
