13. North America, English and Danish beverages

Punch is the term for a wide assortment of drinks, both non-alcoholic and alcoholic, generally containing fruit or fruit juice. The drink was introduced from India to England in the early seventeenth century; from there its use spread to other countries. Punch is typically served at parties in large, wide bowls, known as punch bowls.

Root beer is a carbonated, sweetened beverage, originally made using the root of a sassafras plant (or the bark of a sassafras tree) as the primary flavour. Root beer,

popularized in North America, comes in two forms: alcoholic and soft drink. The historical root beer was analogous to small beer, in that the process provided a drink with a very low alcohol content. Although roots are used as the source of many soft drinks in many countries throughout the world (and even alcoholic beverages/beers), the name “root beer” is rarely used outside North America, Britain and the Philippines. Most other countries have their own indigenous versions of root-based beverages and small beers but with different names.

14. Fruit juice

Fruit juice is a natural product that contains few additives, or none. Citrus products such as orange juice and tangerine juice are very familiar breakfast beverages. Grapefruit juice, pineapple, apple, grape, lime, and lemon juice are also familiar products. Coconut water is a highly nutritious and refreshing juice.

Many kinds of berries are crushed and their juices are mixed with water and sometimes sweetened. Raspberry, blackberry and currants are often popular juices drinks but the percentage of water also determines their nutritive value. Juices were probably humankind's earliest drinks besides water. Grape juice that was allowed to ferment produced the alcoholic drink - wine.

Fruit are highly perishable and so the ability to create juices and store them was of

significant value. Some fruit are highly acidic and mixing them with additional water and sugar or honey was often necessary to make them palatable. Early storage of fruit juices was labor intensive, requiring the crushing of the fruit and the mixing of the resulting pure juices with sugar before bottling and capping them.

Orange juice and coconut water remain by far the most highly consumed juices on the market.
