  • As the water in the cider boils down slowly begin adding the rest of the cider.
  • Once all of the cider has been added keep it to a low boil to boil out the excess moisture. This is what takes the most time, regularly check the consistency by dipping a spoon into the syrup and allowing to cool. (I tend to prefer it close to the consistency of real maple syrup)
  • Once the syrup has the preferred consistency, remove from heat and pour into a quart mason jar and allow to cool.
  • Once cool add a lid and store in fridge.
