I never buy it. I just make it from peels and cores🍎
We made apple pie today. The peels and cores went straight into a jar. In a few weeks they'll be apple cider vinegar😋
This is one of those recipes that genuinely costs nothing — because it starts with something you were going to throw away. No special equipment, no fancy ingredients. Just apple scraps, sugar water, a kitchen towel and a rubber band.
We filled a 0.9 litre jar about four-fifths full with the peels and cores, covered them with sugared water so everything stayed submerged, and that's it. Three to four weeks at room temperature and it's done.
Zero waste. Zero cost. Real vinegar.

It doesn’t make ‘real’ vinegar, just slightly acid water, no real flavour. For proper apple cider vinegar you need real apple juice.
