I've been looking into making a cider and found some in my Grocery store.

It says Fresh Pressed Sweet Apple Cider
The ingredients are Apples.
No Sugar added - No preservatives
No Water or Concentrates - Unfiltered

It Does say Pasteurized

So is this able to be used? Any Steps needed before pitching yeast and letting it do it's thing besides anything I might add to it?
 
You could add sugar to increase the alcohol content in your end product if you want, not required though.
You might add a dose of yeast nutrient and/or yeast energizer to maintain a good, healthy fermentation.

It's really your choice. You can add anything you like, or keep it as is. Either way is fine & you'll likely make some tasty cider.
Regards, GF.
 
Thanks for the help! I went ahead and searched for the Ed wort's and followed that. Pretty simple compared to beer and it's already happily bubbling away.
