Beverage in Malayalam

Anything meant for drinking is a പാനീയം (paaneeyam) in Malayalam, from the same root as the verb for drinking. Menus, packaging and health advice use it; a friend offering you tea would not. The second syllable is long, paa-nee-yam.

paaneeyam is the noun, the drink itself, while kudikkuka is the verb to drink, so the page holds both the thing and the action rather than two competing nouns.
