Natural Drinks in Demand, State to Pop 'Neera' Again
The New Indian Express Thiruvananthapuram
|July 20, 2025
Kerala saw output of coconut-based drink dip after 2018 due to floods, climate change & Covid, but neighbouring states cashed in on the preference for healthy beverages
After years of dwindling production, neera, the nutritious, unfermented sap sourced from the flower of coconut palms, is experiencing a renewed surge in demand in Kerala. While the state, a pioneer in neera production, saw output plummet after 2018 due to floods, climate change, and Covid, neighbouring states such as Tamil Nadu and Karnataka capitalized on growing consumer preference for healthy, natural beverages.
However, there is now hope for neera lovers in Kerala with renewed interest among entrepreneurs and coconut farmers for the produce.
