Leave the sweet apple cider sit too long, it develops a kick.  I think my mother used to purposely set an open jug in the garage for just such reasons. 🥴

Chautauqua and Cattaraugus Counties in New York and Warren County in PA are filled with Amish communities.   Young Amishmen driving buggies while impaired, driving buggies recklessly, racing buggies on roads, etc while not common, happen with some frequency in this area.  Adolescents and young adults are gonna do what adolescents and young adults do, regardless of culture.  The Amish recognize this, and tend to give their young people significant leeway until they formally join the Amish church.

I did have the privilege of living in intercourse for several years and it is literally 3 or 4 miles down the road from Bird-In-Hand. If anyone ever passes through make a point to stop at the Bird-In-Hand bakery and get some whoopie pies.
