    I have all the ingredients to make this (except cheese cloth have to look for a substitute in my small town of Mexico if I can’t find it) but I have one question. How long will this last in the fridge in a jar? By the way I’m a new subscriber and I already am in love with your blog and videos. Everything looks so easy to do with readily available ingredients, for people not in the USA that is very important. So great job and Happy Cooking!

      Hi Shandra!
      If you can’t find the cheese cloth, just go ahead and make the apple cider, and strain it once done 🙂 . Also the Cider should last for about 3-5 days in the refrigerator once done. Thanks for coming by hun! XOXO

    Cheesecloth can be purchased at major fabric stores and also through Amazon.com

    I made your Southern Mac and Cheese. I couldn’t find the Blend American and cheddar. So I had to use the Shedder Velveta and use one cup and one cup of Shredded.

    I have been cooking since I was seven years old
