Cider Ingredients

Method

Cider Preparation

1

Prepare the Apples

Wash and core the fresh apples. Cut them into quarters and place them in a large pot.

2

Add Water and Sugar

Pour the filtered water over the apples and add the granulated sugar. Stir until the sugar is dissolved.

3

Add Spices

Add the cinnamon sticks, whole cloves, and star anise to the pot. Bring the mixture to a boil.

4

Simmer the Mixture

Reduce the heat and let the mixture simmer for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.

5

Mash the Apples

After 30 minutes, use a potato masher to mash the apples thoroughly. This will help release their juices.

6

Strain the Cider

Place a fine mesh strainer over a large bowl and pour the apple mixture through it to separate the liquid from the solids.

7

Ferment the Cider

Transfer the liquid back to the pot, add lemon juice and yeast, and stir well. Cover with a clean cloth and let it ferment in a cool, dark place for 1-2 weeks.

8

Bottle the Cider

After fermentation is complete, siphon the cider into clean bottles, leaving some space at the top. Seal the bottles and refrigerate.
