What to add to apple compote to make it unforgettably delicious: the best drink for a hot summer
Instead of buying juices and sodas at the store, try making a fragrant, tasty and rich apple compote at home.
As the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, chef Yulia Arkhipova , assures, this will take you no more than 30 minutes, and the ingredients you need are the most accessible.
The first thing you should do is stock up on the necessary ingredients. Here they are:
- 400 g apples;
- 120 g dried apples;
- 140 g sugar;
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice;
- 1 cinnamon stick;
- 2 cloves;
- 1 liter of water.
Fresh apples need to be washed, core removed and cut into pieces.
Pour water into a saucepan, bring to a boil and add sugar. Add lemon juice, stir and cook for another 10-12 minutes.
After this time, throw apples into the container – fresh and dried, cinnamon and cloves, and then wait for the future compote to boil.
When you see bubbles on the surface of the water, reduce the heat to low and continue cooking for another 30 minutes.
All that remains is to turn off the heat and leave the compote to steep for an hour under a closed lid.
Once the compote has cooled completely, remove the cinnamon and cloves. Then pour it into a glass container and put it in the refrigerator to cool.
