1. A process for preparing a beverage comprising steps of:
obtaining water from plant material;
processing the plant material in a commercial juice producing process into a juice comprising water and solids;
evaporating the juice in an evaporation process;
when the juice has a water content of 30% of less, capturing the evaporated water by a condenser to produce the beverage;
enriching the beverage in at least one of oxygen isotopes;
wherein the at least one of oxygen isotopes is in a range of:
for isotope 160: 0.99738 to 0.99776 mole fraction;
for isotope 170: 3.7×10−4 to 4.0×10−4 mole fraction; and
for isotope 180: 1.88×10−3 to 2.22×10−3 mole fraction; and
processing the evaporated water with a molecular sieve to remove contaminants.
