Alright, I've spent a year now making cider after cider trying to find a recipe I like (in a two bedroom apartment with kegging not possible). I've made about 30 gallons of the following recipe due to my own fondness for it and the approval of those that have been able to taste it.
4 gallons apple cider
3lbs amber DME
1lb orange blossom honey
white labs london ale yeast
5 gal total volume
has been between 5 and 6%alc
Easy recipe I know but it tastes so good. Also, toss a saison or other belgian yeast in this for a Belgian kick if that's your thing. It happens to be my thing and it tastes awesome. If you havn't tried orange blossom honey in your cider recipes I would strongly suggest it. The tangy citrus flavor is unlike any other honey you'll try. I currently buy 12lbs at a time from Northern Brewer in St. Paul, MN (good deals on shipping). Happy brewing
