Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Apples

    Wash and chop the fresh apples into quarters. Do not peel them, as the skins add flavor.

  2. 2

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large pot, combine the chopped apples, water, sugar, cinnamon sticks, cloves, and nutmeg.

  3. 3

    Simmer the Mixture

    Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 30 minutes.

  4. 4

    Mash the Apples

    After simmering, use a potato masher to mash the apples, releasing their juices.

  5. 5

    Strain the Cider

    Using a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth, strain the mixture to separate the liquid from the solids. Discard the solids.

  6. 6

    Add Lemon Juice and Vanilla

    Stir in the lemon juice and vanilla extract to the strained cider for added flavor.

  7. 7

    Serve Hot or Cold

    Serve the cider hot, or let it cool and serve it over ice for a refreshing drink.
