Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Feni is a traditional alcoholic beverage that is produced primarily in Goa, India. It is made from the fermentation of cashew apples and distillation.
- Option (1) is correct because Feni is made from the cashew nut fruit. The cashew apple is fermented to produce Feni.
- Option (2) is incorrect because wine made from grapes is typically referred to as grape wine or simply wine, not Feni.
- Option (3) is incorrect because mangoes are used to make another alcoholic beverage called "mango wine," not Feni.
- Option (4) is incorrect as Feni is specifically made from cashew apples, not a mixture of mangoes and grapes.
Thus, the correct answer is option (1): Wine prepared from cashew nuts.
