Apple Pie Cordial Recipes

APPLE CORDIAL

Steps:

• Place the apples into a large saucepan and add enough water to cover.
• Bring to the boil and allow to simmer uncovered until the apples have broken up and look frothy/pulpy. Add more water as necessary. (This took just over two hours.)
• Place a muslin cloth or clean tea towel over a large bowl, place a strainer on top and pour in the apples. Allow to sit until all the liquid has flowed though to the bowl. Do not squeeze the pulp. (This took about 1 hour.)
• Prepare the jars or bottles by washing with warm soapy water, rinsing and placing in the oven on low (just above 100°C) for at least 30 minutes.
• Transfer the strained liquid to a large pan and add the sugar (adjust the quantity to taste) and tartaric acid. Simmer for 15 minutes.
• Pour into the sterilised jars and seal. Allow to cool then store in the fridge.
• To serve, mix a small amount (to taste) with plain or sparkling water.

APPLE PIE CORDIAL

Steps:

• 1. Place apples and cinnamon in a large glass container that has a tight fitting lid.
• 2. Add vodka to apples and cinnamon.
• 3. Make the simple syrup. I combine the water and sugar in a 2 cup pyrex measuring cup and microwave it until the sugar is disolved.
• 4. Let the simple syrup cool and then add to vodka.
• 5. Shake well.
• 6. Let mixture sit for approximately 4 days. Shake the mixture twice daily.
• 7. Remove the apples and cinnamon sticks.
• 8. The cordial needs to be strained to remove all the residue. Coffee maker filters work well. Strain through coffee filters until the cordial is nice and clear.
• 9. NOTE: Be sure to dampen coffee filters first. Place them in a strainer and pour liquid through the filter a little at a time. This is a time consuming process. You may have to strain it 3-4 times. I've actually opened up the filters and lined a small collender with them and then poured the liquid through.
• 10. You can store the cordial in an empty vodka bottle or put it in little bottles to give as gifts. Keep in frig.
