Drizzle

Directions

1. 1
   put one gallon of apple cider in crock pot if you don't have time to babysit --.
2. 2
   if using a crock pot you may end up having to leave the lid slightly askew so moisture can escape.
3. 3
   If on the stove bring to a boil then turn down right away to a simmer.
4. 4
   You want to reduce this down to about 1/3.
5. 5
   The best way to describe the right consistency is thinner than maple syrup, but if put into the frig it will become loosely gelatinous.
6. 6
   Once the cider has reduced to your liking start adding the balsamic vinegar, I just use a splash, you may like more or less, or you may wish to leave it out all together.
7. 7
   If I'm canning this I strain mine through a jelly bag as I prefer it clear, but if I'm using it straight away I don't bother with this step.
8. 8
   pour into sterile jars and boil water bath for ten minutes.
9. 9
   prep and cooking times are estimates since it depends on your method.
