Abstract

A resource efficient manufacturing process of a drink (in particular a cold drink) for the retail market comprising: mixing essential drink component with purified rainwater, and filling a finalise retail product into a container in a bottling step; wherein the purification of the rainwater is characterised by: Subjecting water collected directly from precipitation to a first filtration process, Subjecting the water obtained from step a) to a reverse osmosis filtration step, and Remineralising the water obtained from step b); and drinks products obtained and obtainable from said method. The method is advantages in that it minimises the amount of water employed for bulk manufacturing whilst providing reproducibly high quality water with a pleasing taste suitable. It also allows drinks of high alkalinity to be prepared, which is very desirable and may have health benefits.

Claims (13)

Claims
1. A resource efficient manufacturing process of a drink (in particular a cold drink) for the retail market comprising: i) Mixing essential drink component with purified rainwater, and ii) Filling a finalise retail product into a container in a bottling step; wherein the purification of the rainwater is characterised by: a. Subjecting water collected directly from precipitation to a first filtration process, b. Subjecting the water obtained from step a) to a reverse osmosis filtration step, and c. Remineralising the water obtained from step b).
2. A process according to claim 1, wherein step a) comprises a three stage superfine filtration process.
3. A process according to claim 2, wherein the stage one of the three stage superfine filter is a 90 micron particle filter.
4. A process according to claim 2 or 3, wherein stage two of the three stage superfine filter is a 20 micron particle filter.
5. A process according to any one of claims 2 to 4, wherein stage three of the three stage superfine filter is a carbon filter.
6. A water preparation process according to any one of claims 1 to 5, wherein the reverse osmosis of step b) is a five stage process.
7. A process according to claim 6, wherein stage one of the reverse osmosis is a 5 micron polypropylene filter, for example to remove metals and general sediment
8. A process according to claim 6 or 7, wherein stage two of the reverse osmosis is a carbon water filter, for example to remove chemicals, free radicals, lead and aluminium.
9. A process according to any one of claims 6 to 8, wherein stage three of the reverse osmosis is a 1 micron polypropylene water filter, for example to remove particles and sediment
10. A process according to any one of claims 6 to 9, wherein stage four of the reverse osmosis employs a membrane with a 0.001m rating, for example to remove microplastics. (This is the stage that generates a small amount of waste water).
11. A process according to any one of claims 6 to 10, wherein stage five of the reverse osmosis is an activated carbon water filter, for example an in-line, in particular to polish the water.
12. A process according to any one of claims 1 to 11, wherein the mineralisation of step c) comprising adding a salt selected from the group comprising calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium and combinations thereof.
13. A process according to any one of claims 1 to 12, wherein the water obtained from step c) is stored, for example in tanks. A process according to any one of claims 1 to 13, wherein the drink is a soft drink, for example selected form a soda including a mixer, such as cola, tonic waters, ginger ale, tonic syrups, non-alcoholic gin, non-alcoholic cocktails and non-alcoholic mixed drinks including fruit juices.

A process according to any one of claims 16 to 19, wherein the spirit is selected from Whiskey, Rye Whiskey, Bourbon Rum, and Brandy. A process according to claim 16 to 18, wherein the spirit is selected from Gin, Vodak, Tequila Raki, Pernod, Ouzo, Cachaca and Absinthe. A process according to any one of claims 16 to 21, wherein the spirit is bottled. A process according to any one of claims 16 to 21, wherein the spirit is filled into a container (such as a can, bottle, pouch, carton or similar) as a premixed beverage. A process according to any one of claims 1 to 23, wherein the water purification is performed on site (i.e. close to or co-located) where the retail drink is manufactured. A non-alcoholic drink obtainable from a process according to any one of claims 1 to 17 and 24, for example wherein the drink has high alkalinity, such as pH of 8 or above, in particular a pH of 9 or 10 or above, especially a pH of 11 or above more specifically a pH of 11.5. A spirit obtainable from a process according to any one of claims 16 to 24, for example wherein the drink has high alkalinity, such as pH of 8 or above, in particular a pH of 9 or 10 or above, especially a pH of 11 or above more specifically a pH of 11.5.
