It doesn’t say anywhere in this article how much apple juice to use…
how much apple juice goes into this? I can’t see apple juice listed in the ingredient list..?
Could you please edit the recipe? It says 6 apple, but gives no measurement. Is it 6 oz.? 6 Tbsp? Then, in the directions it says to “add all the water at once,” but there is no water or quantity for water listed in the ingredients or directions. Thank you, I really look forward to trying this.
