  2. one teacupful of sugar

Cook safely

Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

  2. Put in brass or porcelain kettle and add one teacupful of sugar to each gallon of cider;
  3. boil five minutes, skimming all the time.
  4. Put in jugs and seal while hot.
  5. This will keep in a cool place, and is very much better than the fresh cider.
