That would have been my first guess also, Rogerm. However, the source that I have says that it was one other President (and others not named).

Eva, in the USA hard cider (hard meaning with alcohol) ranges from about 4% -11%. Can vary.

Congratulations, Anita, you're the winner! Those of you who are members of the Surratt Society will see this answer confirmed in the August issue of the Surratt Courier. The President's Message is a quick lesson on the drinking habits of Americans in the early days. I can't remember the whole title of the book that he cites, but the first part is The Alcoholic Republic...

Eva, I'm afraid that the only ciders that I have ever tasted were made from apples. A pear cider sounds very interesting -- perhaps a little lighter?
