Cormé is a sharp country drink made by fermenting the small pear-like fruit of the service tree (Sorbus domestica) in water. The 18th-century Encyclopédie fills a cask more than half full of firm, not yet ripe fruit, tops it up with water and leaves the bung open; Chaptal (1823) used oven-dried fruit at 8–10 kg per 100 litres of water and drew the drink after four or five days.
Amounts from a sourceChaptal (1823) gives 8 to 10 kg of dried fruit per 100 litres of water; the Encyclopédie gives only "more than half a cask" of fresh fruit topped up with water.

The Encyclopédie says cormes do not ripen on the tree and are knocked down in autumn; spread on straw they turn soft and sweet. For cormé it wants fruit not yet ripe, yellowish and firm. Output: firm service-tree fruit.

Cormé is a sharp country drink made by fermenting the small pear-like fruit of the service tree (Sorbus domestica) in water. The 18th-century Encyclopédie fills a cask more than half full of firm, not yet ripe fruit, tops it up with water and leaves the bung open; Chaptal (1823) used oven-dried fruit at 8–10 kg per 100 litres of water and drew the drink after four or five days. Made in 5 steps over 4 days – 5 days. The longest step, ferment, takes 4–5 days (Chaptal J.-A. 1823).
Cormé is a piquette-style drink, fruit soaked in water rather than pressed juice, made from service-tree fruit. Cider made from pressed cormes, said to resemble perry, was also made near forests where the trees were common.
Cormé ciderPressed-fruit cider of cormes, made in some districts near forests; likened to perry.
Speierling-Apfelwein (Frankfurt)French Wikipedia says cormé is still made near Frankfurt under this name and is not a cider despite the word Apfelwein. English Wikipedia instead describes service-tree fruit added in small amounts to Frankfurt apple wine; see `cider`.
Mixed-fruit piquetteChaptal adds one twentieth of dried cormes and one thirtieth of juniper berries to a dried apple and pear drink.
Safety
The Encyclopédie warns that it spoils in frost and in heat, so it was drunk in winter.
The Encyclopédie (1750s) describes cormé as a drink made in the countryside for servants. Chaptal (1823) still describes it, and the Maison rustique du XIXe siècle (1844) mentions a cider of cormes; the tree is now rare in France.
