Naw. Cider is alcoholic, its only in US you use the term "Hard Cider". Everywhere else, cider means alcoholic apple drink.
"Cider (or cyder) is an alcoholic beverage made primarily from the juices of specially grown varieties of apples. In most places in the world, the term refers to fermented apple juice, but the drink is known as hard cider in the United States, where the term "cider" almost exclusively refers to apple cider, a fresh, minimally processed variety of apple juice." - From Wiki.
It's only you americans making things complicated as usual ;) I'm pretty sure I know what I'm talking about as: "Cider is very popular in the United Kingdom, especially in South West England, in comparison to other countries. The UK has the highest per capita consumption as well as the largest cider producing companies in the world including H. P. Bulmer, the largest."
I'm from England :)
