    Needed Items and Ingredients:

    • 1 sterilized large-mouth quart jar
    • Cheesecloth or paper towel to cover
    • Rubber band
    • 2-3 medium apples, peeled, chopped and cored
    • 3 tbs raw sugar
    • Filtered water

    Instructions:

    1. Take the apples and stuff them into the sterilized jar.
    2. Mix the sugar with about 1 cup filtered water, then pour the mixture over the apples
    3. Pour more water into the jar until the apples are completely covered. You might need a sterile rock or fermenting weight to keep the apples submerged in the liquid
    4. Cover the top of the jar with the cheesecloth, paper towel, or other breathable fabric, and secure tightly with the rubber band
    5. Let sit in a warm, dark place for 2-3 weeks. Often a cupboard or top shelf of a pantry will do just fine
    6. After 2-3 weeks, strain out the apple pieces and return the liquid to the jar. Secure with fresh cheesecloth and a rubber band and return to your dark place
    7. Let sit for another 3-4 weeks, stirring every few days
    8. Once the apple cider vinegar reaches the acidity you like, it’s ready to use! Simply cover with the jar’s original lid or transfer to any container you can seal and enjoy!
