wash the apples
remove the apple cores and cut them into smaller pieces

STEP 3: Boil Em!
toss the apples into a pan and add water
as the apples start to soften
pour them out into a separate bowl
the apples should be soft enough for you to stick your finger into the slices
PS: I made some jello while the apples cooked

STEP 4: Blend Em!
toss them into your blender or processor
and wreak havoc!
after the apples turn into apple sauce, dump them out onto your extra shirt
and SQUEEZE and twist
ring out as much apple cider as you can
then after you have a good amount add spices to taste
you can also add other juices at this time

STEP 5: Move Over Recylcing, Cuz We're Reusing
now take those mushy apple fibers and using the same water you used to boil the apples
mix them together
and cook them
while its cooking
add sugar
as most of the sugar from the apples has already been squeezed out
now just as in the last step
ring out all the juice you can get from your new mixture

STEP 6: Optional
Refine it if you want to
mine has some mushy stuff still in it
so i poured it back into the shirt
and ringed it out again
but not as tightly as the first time
and then i re-spiced the cider
and added a little cream on the top

I depends if you are English or American. What the Americans call "Cider" in England is apple juice to an Englishman. Cider in England is alcoholic, otherwise it's just apple juice.

for your information you u r talking about HARD cider; not normal cider
JeremiahA1 9 years ago
no, hard cider is normal cider, only in america (where i am) do we think the opposite, because we created the "kiddie" version just like the kiddie cocktail. everywhere else in the world calls hard cider regular cider and the other is alcohol free cider...

If you read the INSTRUCTIONS, it tells you where you must add the sugar.
