In Hinduism
Kama-shastra (the science of Love-making)
Pānakarasarāgāsavayojana (पानकरसरागासवयोजन) refers to the “art of preparing drinks”, and represents one of the sixty-four arts (aṅgavidyā), according to the Vātsyāyana’s Kāmasūtra: a Sanskrit text from the 2nd century dealing with eroticism, sexuality and emotional fulfillment in life belonging to Kāmaśāstra (the ancient Indian science of love-making).—Accordingly, “[While defending the standpoint that women should be allowed to learn theoratical science] [...] A female should study alone in private the sixty-four practices, arts and sciences (such as the preparation of drinks—pānakarasarāgāsavayojana), together with the Kama Sutra. [...] A public woman, endowed with a good disposition, beauty and other winning qualities, and also versed in such arts (e.g., pānakarasarāgāsavayojana), obtains the name of a Gaṇikā (i.e., “a public woman of high quality”), and receives a seat of honour in an assemblage of men. She is, moreover, always respected by the king, and praised by learned men, and her favour being sought for by all, she becomes an object of universal regard”.
Note: Pānakarasarāgāsavayojana can be defined as follows: (1) “making lemonades, sherbets, acidulated drinks, and spirituous extracts with proper flavour and colour” (2) “the preparation of drinks” (3) “preparing wines, fruit juices, and other things to drink”. Note: Cooking is the art of transforming various vegetables into soups and dishes. Drinks are of two kinds, distilled or not. The latter may be fermented or not. Unfermented drinks are made by squeezing mudga beans [Phaseolus mungo], mango, or mulberry fruit, and adding sugar or tamarind fruit. Fermented drinks are made with palm wine [toddy], or wild fig wine [mahua]. When distilled, a liqueur is obtained that may be mild, medium, or strong. [...] Food and drinks are thus prepared, either uncooked, or else cooked to improve their flavor. Although different, these processes all indicate ways of satisfying taste
Pānakarasarāgāsavayojana (पानकरसरागासवयोजन) refers to “preparing juice and drinks” and represents one of the “sixty four kinds of Art”, according to the Kāmasūtra of Vātsyāyaṇa.—Indian tradition, basically includes sixty four Art forms are acknowledged. The references of sixty four kinds of kalā are found in the Bhāgavatapurāṇa, Śaiva-Tantras, Kāmasūtra of Vātsyāyaṇa etc.
