This is really good I made two batches for Christmas gifts. The first batch I made as per directions and it came out really lemony, very good, but much more lemony than I expected. The lemon overpowered the apples. The second batch I got the tablespoon of lemon juice from the lemon I cut up, instead of in addtion to it. This batch definitely highlights both flavors very well.
