Add the apple pieces into a pot with boiling water.
Mix in Cream of Tartar.
Cover the pot and turn down the heat!
Simmer the apples for 15 minutes.
Let it sit and cool for 24 hrs.
Strain the liquid into a jar, then press down on the apple pulp to extract as much juice as possible.
Add sugar and lemon juice.
You can seal your juice at this point by simply adding a sterile lid to canning the jar or go on to the next step if you don't wish to have it canned.
Put the jug in the fridge and allow the juice to settle.
The juice will separate with some sludge on the bottom and a dark rich juice at the top of the jar. Pour the juice into another jar and discard the sludge.
Chill until you use it! Enjoy!
