Summary: 

>Does anybody out there have any idea how to make apple cider? Either
>the alcoholic or the non-alcoholic type.

Non-alchoholic:

	Crush apples.  Drink.

Alchoholic:

	Crush apples.  Store juice in a jar covered with gauze or
	cheesecloth for a week.  Drink.

On a somewhat more serious note, the term "apple cider" has differing
regional meanings.  In the Boston area, it refers to unfiltered apple
juice.  The fermented stuff is called applejack, and is usually
filtered.  In California, cider usually means fermented (alchoholic)
juice, either filtered or not.
