Simmer the Mixture
Place the pot over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 20-30 minutes, or until the apples are soft and mushy.

Strain the Juice
Once the apples are soft, remove the pot from heat. Using a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth, strain the mixture into a large bowl or pitcher, pressing down on the apple pulp to extract as much juice as possible.
