That's a pretty standard recipe for Apple Pie.

You'll find a lot of similar recipes in the Mountain Man/Rendezvous scene. Often there are contests for the best Apple Pie.

Something you might also like to try: rather than boiling down your cider so much, start with frozen concentrate and don't fully reconstitute it, or use part cider and part concentrate.

good tip- i won first place several times at pacifics , rocky mnt nationals and other local rendezvous, very close to apple pie , mate

We used to imbibe with apple pie shooters: Apple juice, vodka, and a topping of whipped cream.

Mayhap ye can call it "Jolie Rouge" , the etymological origin o' the term "Jolly Roger".

I like this idea!

There are so many drinks that should have this as a warning label! lol

It is called candied apple punch. Our White Trash Fur Company men were making and drinking this stuff in the 1980s and 1990s. They added the red-hots when they made the cider fresh. Too damn sweet for me though.

My apple pie is two gallons of fresh cider, one fifth meyers rum,one fifth cinnamon schnapps, one full cinnamon stick, 1/4 cup of brown sugar, all in a brass bucket and stir like crazy, then pour into crock jugs, cork, and set in the freezer until slushy.

Boiling cider? But but but but that gets rid of the alcohol! Can't y'just steep the thingies rather than boiling them in lovely zider....fancy me a pint or two now

mmmmmm Addlestones, perfect after a warm cloudless day.

starts at 6% abv but it's still working so can get to 10%+...think thats 12% to 20% in US terms

Red sky at night ......sails alight!

[jendobyns]

I think he's talking fresh (pasteurized) cider, not the proper fermented stuff. It starts out like a version of hot spiced cider of a modern sort, then takes a turn with the everclear.

Aaaah! What the rest of the world would call apple juice ;oÞ

The US usage of 'cider' for apple juice seems to stem from the Temperance Movement in the late 19thC.
