All you need is juice, yeast, basic cider fermenter equipment.
1. Gather Equipment & Ingredients
Juice. Store-bought apple juices make great hard cider as long as you avoid those that are stabilized. Read the label. If the juice contains sulfite, sorbate, benzoate or other chemical-sounding ingredients, it most likely will not ferment. Instead, select a juice that is pasteurized as it ensures there is no living or wild yeast present in the jug.
Cider fermentation tank to ferment your cider.
Fermentation airlock to keep air out of your fermentation vessel.
Brewing Cleaner & Sanitizer

2. Cleaning and Sanitation
Whether you're making cider, mead, wine, or beer, this is the most important step of your brew day. Cleaning helps to remove any organic soils from your cider making supplies, and sanitation helps to kill any kind of living yeast or microorganisms that could be harmful to the flavor of your cider. Note: do not use dish soap for cleaning/sanitation. The oils in the soap could leave a film that leaves a nasty taste in your cider.

Recommended cleaners:
One Step Cleaner
Powdered Brewery Wash
Recommended Sanitizer:
Star San

3. Make Cider by Mixing Juice & Yeast
Once you've thoroughly cleaned and sanitized your cider brewing equipment, mix the yeast in with the juice and sugar and let science turn it into a smooth libation.
