Fresh, Homemade Apple Juice
This apple juice recipe is super easy and requires no juicer! My mother had this creative way of using the leftover apple cores and peels (from baking pies) to make homemade apple juice. To anyone with a sensitive palate, the distinct and almost bitter taste of store-bought apple juice can be a little strong at times. This homemade juice is lighter and pleasantly sweet without the kick. 
water
5
cups
peels and cores from red apples - seeds removed
3
white sugar
¼
cup
 Gather all ingredients.
  Combine water with apple peels and cores in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the apple flavor and color have permeated the water, about 30 minutes.
  Strain apple juice into a mixing bowl; discard all solids. Stir in sugar until dissolved. Allow to cool for 30 minutes before drinking.
