The Cider Slushies From Carter Mountain Orchard In Virginia Are Very Refreshing

There are many activities that signify the arrival of fall: apple picking, visiting pumpkin patches, meandering through corn mazes, and sometimes enjoying all of the above at a fall festival. Today, we’ll bring you a less-than-conventional fall activity that may just become your new favorite: cider slushies. It’s not so much an activity as a delicious seasonal beverage to enjoy, but when you try one at Carter Mountain Orchard, you’ll also enjoy the breathtaking landscape.
