I made a batch of hard cider for a friend of mine about 6 months ago. Now he's hooked and making a couple gallons every other week.
I tried one of his latest - blueberry apple cider. It was really good with just a bit of blueberry flavor.
This is his recipe:
2 gallons and 1 quart of Organic apple juice from BJ's. 1 quart of Wymanns blueberry juice from BJ's, 4 cups of sugar, 1/4 packet of yeast. Let it ferment for 5-7 days, rack unfiltered. Let it sit in the bottle for about 2 weeks and refrigerate as needed...
I asked about SG and he doesn't test that - "too scientific for me". Do you see any improvements to this?
