12 litres of Lidl Apple Juice 12x 62p
6 Litres of Lidl Still water 3 x 60p
2 Punnets of Cherries 2x2.40
2 bottles of sparkling cherry water 2 x 85p
1 Tumbler of Apple JD free from me bar
1 bottle of Lidl Amaretto 8.99
Total cost 24.87 i got 59 bottles out of it cost per 330ml bottle 45pence
I always use Bread Yeast/ but you can use Any cider yeast
How to make:
Empty all the Apple juice into your 30 litre container top of with the Still water and the 2 punnets of cherries and 1 tumbler/or Cup of Apple JD.
Then add the yeast and put the lid on with Airlock The JD will help eat the sugars up quicker and make it a good strong Cider.
I’m talking 11 to 15% cider not for the faint hearted but you can weaken it down with more water.
Once it stops bubbling move to secondary container and then add a further 2 litres cherry water and 1 bottle of Amaretto and the lid and airlock and leave for another week
Once done you can drink it straight from secondary container or you can bottle it up make sure it has fully stopped fermenting or it can blow the tops of your bottles.
This is too mourish and great summer drink if you don't like the idea of adding spirits to your ciders you can use Almond Syrup but make sure you add that to the first not the secondary as its more sugars
