Cider can be made from all kinds of good fruits (maybe things other than fruits can count as cider, I'm cideroligist)

Cider has to be made from apple juice. It can be flavoured with other fruits, but if it's labeled cider, it has to be apple based.

I guess if a sciencethist says it, it must be true

The type of fruit that you use dictates what you've made. There's no such thing as grape cider.

It's still got apples in it it's still cider it's just also got pears in it.

Just like wild fruit cider isn't really made from berries. It's just got berries in

Perry is made from pears, it's not just pear-flavoured apple cider.

Only if it comes from the cider district of France, else you have to call it cremant
