MINERAL WATER

ALSO KNOWN AS SPRING WATER. IT IS THE WATER DERIVED FROM UNDERGROUND FORMATION FROM WHERE THE WATER FLOWS NATURALLY TO THE SURFACE OF THE EARTH. MINERALS GET DISSOLVED IN THE WATER AS IT MOVES THROUGH THE UNDERGROUND ROCKS. THIS MAY GIVE THE WATER A FLAVOUR AND EVEN CARBONATION, DEPENDING UPON THE GEOLOGY THROUGH WHICH IT PASSES. THIS IS WHY BOTTLD SPRING WATER IS CALLED MINERAL WATER.MINERAL WATER HAS GOT THERAPEUTIC VALUE AS IT CONTAINS MINERALS, SALTS, SULPHER COMPOUNDS, GASES ETC. MINERAL WATER CAN ALSO BE PREPARED ARTIFICIALLY

AERATED DRINKS

THESE BEVERAGES ARE CHARGED OR AERATED WITH CARONIC GAS. THE CHARGING WITH CARBONIC GAS IMPARTS A PLEASANT EFFERVESCENT QUALITY TO THESE BEVERAGES. CARBONATION OCCURS WHEN CARBON DI OXIDE IS DISSOLVED IN WATER. THIS PROCESS CREATES FIZZ OR SPARKLE IN THE BEVERAGES. EXAMPLE: SODA, COKE, PEPSI, FRUIT BEER, GINGER BEER, LEMONADE ETC.

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.
