hard cider substitute?

I am really missing hard cider right now. Anyone have any ideas for a good substitute? Does a non-alcoholic version exist?

Maybe sparkling cider?  Grocery store or Walmart might have it.

ETA: I feel your pain.  I wish I could find some non-alcoholic pumpkin beer.

You mean....like....Apple cider? Um, yes it exists and it's a good time of year to find it everywhere since it's in season,

I love hard cider too!  I've been drinking either Ginger Ale or Sparkling Cider when the craving hits.  It's not quite the same, but it helps in the moment.

Haha yeah. I've had plenty! But it doesn't have that satisfying bite that hard cider has.

Thanks, ladies! I told dh and he said, "I'm going to the grocery store, aren't I..."

True. I usually mix juices with seltzer water or club soda to add a bit of fizz and cut the sweetness.

I've been mixing half regular cider half seltzer and thought to myself it was similar to the hard ciders I love.
