Tap Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings

Connect it to iTunes on your computer and let it restore iOS. When prompted restore as New.

Turn off iMessage, FaceTime & delete the iCloud account. Then: Settings>General>reset>Erase All Content & Settings. Then give it to your friend.

You need to FIRST turn off iMessage & FaceTime, or the device will still be associated with your Apple ID. DO NOT erase until you first do this.
