- 2 cups apple juice
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1½ tablespoons apple cider vinegar

Instructions
- In a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat, combine apple juice, brown sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, apple cider vinegar, and butter, whisking to blend.
- Bring the mixture to a boil and maintain a gentle boil for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Reheat the syrup gently before serving if it thickens too much in the fridge.
