BEVERAGES

BEVERAGES ARE POTABLE LIQUIDS HAVING THIRST QUENCHING, REFRESHING, NOURISHING & STIMULATING QUALITIES. THE WORD “BEVERAGE” HAS BEEN DERIVED FROM THE LATIN WORD “BEVER” WHICH MEANS REST FROM WORK. AFTER WORK, ONE TENDS TO FEEL THIRSTY DUE TO THE FLUID LOSS THROUGH PERSPIRATION AND ONE IS INCLINED TO DRING WATER OR OTHER POTABLE BEVERAGES TO COMPENSATE THE FLUID LOSS.
