Pakvekshu Rasa — Heated/Cooked Sugarcane Juice

पक्वेक्षुरसः

Boiled or heated sugarcane juice (Pakvekshu Rasa) has different properties from fresh juice. Heating reduces the heaviness and makes it somewhat lighter. However, prolonged heating and processing gradually converts it through various stages toward jaggery and sugar. Partially heated juice (Pakva Rasa) is described as being between raw juice and Phani in properties. Verse 14.
