Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Wash and Prepare Apples

    Start by washing the green apples thoroughly under running water. Remove the stems and any blemished spots. Cut them into quarters, leaving the skin on.

  2. 2

    Juicing the Apples

    Using a juicer or a blender, process the quartered apples until they are fully juiced. If using a blender, you may need to add a little water to help blend smoothly. Strain the juice through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a large bowl or pitcher.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large pot, combine the freshly squeezed apple juice, lemon juice, grated ginger, brown sugar, honey, cinnamon stick, cloves, and water. Stir well to mix all ingredients.

  2. 4

    Simmer the Mixture

    Place the pot over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer uncovered for about 30 minutes. This will allow the flavors to meld together.

Finishing Touches

  1. 5

    Strain and Cool

    After simmering, remove the pot from heat. Strain the cider through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth again to remove the spices and any solids. Let it cool to room temperature.

  2. 6

    Serve

    Once cooled, the cider can be served chilled over ice or warmed in a pot on the stove. Garnish with a slice of green apple or a sprig of mint if desired.
