Try a different brine for this year's holiday turkey! This one will transport the flavors of dark, sweet maple syrup and tart apples into your beautifully browned bird.
In a large stockpot, add the salt and maple syrup to the prepared stock, then stir in the apple cider and peppercorns. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring to dissolve the salt completely. Add the ice water to cool the stock and refrigerate overnight or until the brine is completely chilled.
