The equipment everyone is suggesting is a good idea. I'd also at least use wine yeast instead of bread yeast (it's not that expensive).
Honestly, though, I'd suggest buying something like this one gallon fermenter or this wide mouth fermenter. They both come with an airlock cost you less than $10 and they will make this process a lot easier.
If you want something super cheap, but not quite so disgusting, I suggest you start with Skeeter Pee. You can cut all the proportions down by 1/5. I always make mine with this champagne yeast instead of a yeast slurry. I just mix the yeast in a clean jelly jar with some apple juice, cover with foil, and wait until it starts to get bubbly. You can omit the tanin. I always blend up some frozen strawberries and throw that in there too (they probably have enough nutrition that you can also omit the yeast nutrient and yeast energizer if you start the yeast in apple juice). You can also use just the Potassium sorbate and leave out the Potassium metabisulfite and if you don't mind a cloudy drink, you can eliminate the Sparkloid as well (although I like how crystal clear it makes mine and that it takes out any of the seeds, strawberry pulp, yeast, etc.)
If you make all those alterations you can probably make a 1 gallon batch of delicious hard strawberry lemonade for less than $5 in ingredients and less than $10 in materials--it'll taste much better than the recipe you had and won't cost you much more either.
I would check online and see if you can find a mason jar lid with an airlock that will work for you.
