Make the Apple Juice

Gather the ingredients.

Wash the apples well. Cut them into quarters (or smaller chunks, depending on the apples' size), removing the stem, blossom end, and seeds.

In a medium saucepan, combine the apples and water. Bring to a rolling boil .

Reduce the heat, cover, and let simmer for 20 minutes. As the apples soften, mash them slightly with a potato masher or wooden spoon. Remove from heat and let cool for about 10 minutes.

Process the apples in a food mill or blender to create a juicy pulp.

Place a fine-mesh strainer over a medium bowl and strain the apple juice from the majority of the pulp. Use a spatula to shuffle the pulp to remove more of the juice.

Line the strainer with two layers of cheesecloth and strain the apple juice a second time to remove the remaining pulp.

Use the apple juice right away for the syrup or let cool and transfer it to a jar with a tight seal. Refrigerate it for up to 2 weeks or freeze as cubes for up to 6 months.

Make the Apple Syrup

Gather the ingredients.

In a medium saucepan, bring the apple juice to a boil, stirring in the raw sugar until completely dissolved.

Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 5 minutes.

Remove from heat, let cool for about 10 minutes, then stir in the citric acid.

Once completely cool, pour into jars with tight seals and keep in the refrigerator for up to 2 months.
