Apple juice can work in a pinch, but cider will give the syrup a richer flavor.Dark brown sugar: Adds sweetness and a deeper molasses flavor.Light brown sugar can be used if that is what you have.
Cornstarch: Helps thicken the syrup.I would not skip it, since it gives the syrup its nice consistency.Ground cinnamon: Adds warm, cozy spice that pairs perfectly with the apple cider.
Ground nutmeg: A little nutmeg adds another layer of warm spice.You can leave it out if needed.Kosher salt: Helps balance the sweetness.
Apple cider vinegar: Adds a little acidity to balance the sweetness and brighten the apple flavor.I recommend keeping it in the recipe.Unsalted butter: Makes the syrup rich and smooth.
Salted butter can be used; just reduce or omit the kosher salt.Vanilla extract: Adds a little extra flavor and rounds out the syrup.
