*Parisrut* (meaning ‘foaming, fermenting’) another fermented drink, called *surā* (beer) is found to occur in the *Śukla- Yajurveda* (Vāj.S II . 34, XIX. 15, XX.19, XXI.29). According to the commentator it was either fermented flower juice, possibly *Bassia latifolia* (II.34, vide Mahīdhara’s commentary) or fermented germinated paddy (*Śat. Br.* V. 1.2.14, commentary by Harisvāmin).
