Apple Infusion

Apple

An apple is the round, edible fruit of an apple tree. Fruit trees of the orchard or domestic apple, the most widely grown in the genus, are cultivated worldwide. The tree originated in Central Asia, where its wild ancestor, Malus sieversii, is still found. Apples have been grown for thousands of years in Eurasia before they were introduced to the American continent by European colonists. Apples have cultural significance in many mythologies and religions.

Infusion

Infusion is the process of extracting chemical compounds or flavors from plant material in a solvent – such as water, oil, or alcohol –, by allowing the material to remain suspended in the solvent over time. "Infusion" is also the name for the resultant fluid mixture. The process of infusion is distinct from both decoction, a method of extraction involving boiling the plant material, and percolation, in which water is passed through the material.
