Apple Cider
Ingredients:
- Apple Cider:
- 20 apples
- Water
- 8 cinnamon sticks
- 1 Tablespoon whole allspice
- 1 Tablespoon whole cloves
Instructions:
- Cut the apples into quarters and remove the cores (don't bother peeling them).
- Add the apples to a large stock pot and fill with enough water just to cover them.
- Add the spices and bring to a boil. Boil for 45 minutes.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer for another 1 and a half to 2 hours (until apples are soft enough to be mashed).
- Mash up the apples using a potato masher. Strain through a regular strainer and remove the cinnamon sticks.
- Wrap the rest of the mashed apples up in cheesecloth and squeeze over a bowl until no more juice comes out.
- Drink hot or allow it to cool. Store in the fridge.
