What is the difference between apple juice and apple cider?

[Edit]
In America, apple juice and apple cider are the same thing - fresh juice squeezed from apples. Because cider is unfiltered, it is a darker amber color and a bit cloudy. Some manufacturers claim that the types of apple vary, or at what time of the season the apple is processed, resulting in a less sweet, more acidic, tangier taste in cider. What's labeled "apple juice" has been processed to remove the remnants of apple and pasteurized for a longer shelf life. Hot cider is a popular treat in the fall where cider is mixed with seasonings like cloves and cinnamon and mulled.

In England and Australia, apple juice is fresh juice, and apple cider is fermented, alcoholic apple juice.
