Ingredients
Cores and peels from 6-8 apples (ideally organic)
2 tbs. honey
Water to cover
Instructions
After you use the apples to make a wonderful apple treat (such as apple pie bread), place the cores and peels in a large, wide-mouthed jar. I use a 4-cup jar, but you can adjust the size of the jar to the amount of apple scraps you're using.
Cover the scraps with water and stir in the honey.
Place a paper towel on top of the jar, and secure it with a band.
Let the mixture soak for 2 weeks, and then strain out the liquid. Discard the solids.
Return the liquid to the jar and cover it again with a paper towel and band. Leave it for 4 more weeks, stirring daily.
Taste it and see if it has the acidity you would like. If it does, transfer it to a covered bottle for storage. If not, leave it in the wide-mouthed jar for a little while longer, checking every few days.
