Palm Juice Soft Drink
Palm Juice Soft Drink
The first hygienically produced soft drink made from palm juice, produced domestically, has proved popular enough to seek organic certification, and hopefully an export market.
While palm juice has been used to make sugar, alcohol and vinegar, it has never been tapped for making soft drinks on a large scale, Ieng Sotheara, founder of Khmer Organic Cooperative, the company behind the venture, told Khmer Times.
“We have seen palm juice as a non-alcoholic drink for people before, but it has never met any quality standards, so we decided to produce a high-quality product for local consumption, as well as export.”
A year after the project began, the facility in Prey Veng province’s Ba Phnom district has the capacity to produce 50 liters a day.
And the raw ingredient, juice from the ubiquitous palm trees found throughout much of Cambodia, means that production can be further scaled up if needed, said Mr. Sotheara, adding that the harvesting of which provides a valuable source of non-rice income for rural farmers...

Re: Palm Juice Soft Drink
Palm Juice is a traditional Cambodian drink. Research show that’s the fresh palm juice contains Vitamin B,C,D and full of minerals. To protect palm trees as a Cambodian symbol, Confirel Co., Ltd processed palm juice into many products such as palm wine, sour palm juice and palm sugar. The products were well organized and packed especially was very popular for local and international buyers.

Re: Palm Juice Soft Drink
I have been reading about palm nectar, tapped from the top of the palm tree. It has to be distilled immediately after harvest. The British used to call it toddy.Health food shops in the west have it. It sounds like hard work to harvest and distill.

That don't sound right to me. If you were distilling the liquid for the alcohol , then the palm nectar would have to undergo a fermentation process first. This could take ???? days.
If you were to make palm sugar, then you have to start boiling away the liquid straight away,,, before the fermentation process starts converting the sugar to alcohol .
Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.
