Pink Lady, Stayman Winesap all have the crisp, juicy texture you like. You can't use the squeeze method with apples. I have a favorite called Gold Rush, but it isn't available commercially. We have to go to apple growers for this prize, but it is definitely worth the trip. I can bring home big bags of these and store them (in our extra refrigerator) until March. They don't ever get mushy--they only get sweeter. They are worth the wait.
