Step 1

Cut your apples into 1/2" sized pieces or slices.

Step 2

Place them in a sterile quart-sized mason jar.

Step 3

Mix your honey with 1 cup of warm water and add it to the jar. Be sure to use warm water so the honey will dissolve a little.

Step 4

Add more water if needed so the apples are completely covered.

Step 5

Cover the jar using an air lock, or use a scrap of cloth secured with a rubber band. This keeps nasties away while letting the liquid breathe.

Step 6

Place your jar in a warm, dark place for 2 weeks until the mixture has formed cider.

Step 7

Strain the liquid and compost the apple pieces (I feed mine to my chickens).

Step 8

Return the liquid to the same jar and cover it with a clean cloth.

Step 9

Leave the jar in a dark place again for 4-6 weeks until it's turned to vinegar.
