I've been given a recipe for a cider that goes like this
1.5kg tart apples
5.7L water
1kg sugar
Juice & rind of one lemon
Freeze the apples for 3 days then defrost & puree. Pour into a clean bucket & pour over water. Cover with a clean tea-towel. Stir twice a day for 7 days.
Strain through 'cheesecloth' & discard pulp. pour juice back into the bucket & add sugar & lemon. Leave 24 hours, strain again & bottle.
My gut feeling is that this will be low Alc, lolly water. Would that be a fair assumption?
