I love making Apple Syrup for the fall and the holidays because I know I’ll go through a whole bottle no problem. With all the hosting I do in the fall and winter, having a few bottles already made for breakfast, cocktails, and coffee and tea breaks is a no-brainer and a huge life-saver! This Apple Syrup is SO GOOD, it tastes just like apple pie.

Watch Me Make It

How to Make Apple Syrup

  1. To a small sauce pot over medium heat, add apple cider, water, sugar, chopped apples, and spices.
  2. Stir until the sugar dissolves.
  3. Once the sugar is dissolved, simmer for 15-25 minutes or until the apples are cooked down and soft.
  4. Let cool completely.
  5. Once cooled, strain through a fine mesh sieve, squeezing out as much liquid as you can.
  6. If the syrup is too thick to strain, add in a little apple cider to thin it out.
  7. Store it in the fridge for 3-4 weeks (if it even lasts that long!)
