Key Characteristics & Warnings

1. Unpasteurized (Raw) Status:
   • Risk of Contamination: Since this is not pasteurized, it carries a higher risk of bacterial contamination (e.g., E. coli, Listeria, or Salmonella), though outbreaks are rare. Consumers with compromised immune systems (e.g., pregnant women, elderly, or those with HIV/AIDS) should exercise extreme caution or avoid raw cider entirely.
   • Storage: Must be refrigerated and consumed within a few weeks of purchase. The "best by" date is critical—drinking expired raw cider is unsafe.
   • Flavor/Texture: Typically cloudy, slightly tart, and may have a "fresh" apple sediment (normal for raw cider).
