How do you make your cider?

That batch was pretty complicated.

2 gallons Apple Juice

2 cups white sugar

2 cups brown sugar

1 ounce of raisins

Distillers Yeast

Combine everything and let ferment for 3 weeks. Bottle with 1tsp of sugar in each bottle and let it carbonate for about 3-7 days.

It's dry and a little sour, but its super cheap.

Edit: Make sure the apple juice doesn't have preservatives.

Sounds delicious. How boozy did the batch get?

Not bad. I'm lazy and didn't take a hydrometer reading. But it tastes like alcohol without being overpowering.
