Apple cider1/2 tbsp
Lemon1/2 tbsp

Steps

Chop the apples into cubes, then remove the seeds, but keep the peels.
Place the apples in a food processor with the water, and blend until purèed, about five minutes. Don't make it too smooth as that will make it harder to squeeze the juice out. You may need to scratch the sides a few times to be sure you'll get the most juice.
Place the apple puree into a nut milk bag or cheesecloth to separate the juice from the pulp. Squeeze the liquid into a saucepan. You should have about 2 cups of juic.
Add sugar, apple cider vinegar and lemon juice to the saucepan.
Bring the mixture to a boil and steam at low heat until the juice starts to thicken. This process should take 30 minutes, but it can also take longer.
Once the liquid begins to thicken (it will get even thicker when cold), stir it regularly. After two to three minutes, remove it from the stove. Be careful not to caramelize the honey at this point, or it will get super hard when cold, like candy.
Let the honey cool in the saucepan. Next, transfer it to a jar with a lid.
