Ingredients
  • 1 cup apple cider, divided
  • ⅓ cup (67 grams) granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon (2 grams) ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon (2 grams) grated fresh nutmeg
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 2 tablespoons low-sugar fruit pectin

Instructions
  1. In a medium saucepan, combine ¾ cup apple cider, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice over medium-high heat.
