Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Wash and core the apples. Cut them into quarters without peeling. Grate the ginger and set aside.

  2. 2

    Combine Ingredients in a Pot

    In a large pot, add the quartered apples, water, lemon juice, grated ginger, brown sugar, honey, cinnamon stick, and cloves.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Simmer the Mixture

    Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and cover the pot. Allow to simmer for 30 minutes.

  2. 4

    Mash the Apples

    After 30 minutes, remove the pot from heat. Using a potato masher, mash the apples to release their juices.

  3. 5

    Strain the Cider

    Using a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth, strain the mixture into a large bowl or pitcher, pressing down on the solids to extract as much liquid as possible.

Finishing Touches

  1. 6

    Taste and Adjust

    Taste the cider and adjust sweetness if needed by adding more honey or sugar.

  2. 7

    Serve

    Serve the cider warm or chilled, garnished with a cinnamon stick if desired.
