Not a cider drinker myself but lots of friends and family are. They want some sort of fruity cider for bonfire night (I’m being very organised!). Have seen the extract kits of fruited cider on MM. Anyone have any experience with these and are they any good?

Have a look here, it works out much cheaper https://www.thehomebrewforum.co.uk/threads/how-to-make-turbo-cider.69059/
Thank you, might give this a go instead then
I have done a few it's very good, just make sure the apple juice is from concentrate with no preservitive
Iv done the Festival Oaked cider kit from MM and found that very good.
Kits turn out OK no harm in making them shaort ie 20 ltr rather than 23 for a touch stronger. Advice would be give as much time as you can 2 weeks in the FV 2 weeks to carb up and MINIMUM 2 weeks to rest, I found the longer you left it to rest the better it gets.
Turbo cider is very good better than kit I think, plus you have loads of options on what you use supermarkets have loads of fruit juices avoid any with sweeteners or preservatives. Look for concentrated pure juice the sugar content will give it away if unsure

There a new Mulled Cider kit, that would be perfect for bonfire night
Reminds me. I’ve still got about 10 litres of cider sitting in a pressure barrel that I made in summer 2023.
