Throughout the 1800's & early 1900’s, hard apple cider was one of America’s most popular alcoholic beverages with many of the cider recipes being passed on through generations.  From generation to generation, the Antanitis family has enjoyed making hard cider and perfecting their family recipe.  In 2009, the family decided to take this beloved hobby and turn it into a family business. Located near Ricketts Glen State Park,  Colonel Ricketts Hard Cider uses locally grown Pennsylvania apples to hand craft each and every bottle.  If you are visiting central or northeastern Pennsylvania and are looking for something unique and local, come visit Bob and learn what makes Colonel Ricketts Hard Cider so special.
