Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a beverage containing frozen jelly. The present invention relates to a sherbet-like jelly-containing beverage that does not require a hardware such as a mixer.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Shaved ice refers to shaving ice blocks with an ice-sharpening machine with a plane blade just before eating and drinking, and applying various types of syrup to the pieces to eat. This is also called ice water. Shaved ice-like drinks and drinks that mix ice, juice and fruit in a sherbet-like manner are commercially available, but like a shaved ice, they require hardware such as a mixer just before eating and drinking. Shaved ice includes mass-produced and refrigerated ice confections called "Mizore" and "Shaved ice" in which small granular ice is filled in a paper or plastic cup together with syrup. This is made by crushing or shaving a large lump of ice with a circular saw, drum type, planer or other type of ice shaving machine, mixing it with syrup, filling the cup, and seasoning the ice water itself. There is no.

[0003] In a commonly used ice maker in which the outside is cooled with a refrigerant, the raw material water starts to freeze from the cooled inner wall of the ice maker, and then to the center. If you make a syrup containing sweeteners, colorings, sours, flavors, etc. for seasoning, put it in a normal ice can and cool it,
The dissolved components in the syrup are not frozen at the same time as the ice, but remain in the unfrozen syrup and are concentrated. As a result, the components are ubiquitous, making it impossible to produce ice that is uniformly seasoned as a whole. Therefore, Japanese Patent Publication No. Hei 5-70066 discloses that uniformly colored water obtained by dissolving sweeteners, pigments, and the like is sprayed from the outside toward the inner wall of an ice can cooled to −5 ° C. to −30 ° C. As the ice grows, the spray nozzle is gradually pulled up to the top of the ice can, and at the same time, the unfrozen solution is continuously pumped from the bottom of the ice can, deaerated, mixed with the raw material solution, and supplied to the ice can again Is disclosed. Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. Hei 5-244874 discloses an ice plate in which a raw material liquid is allowed to flow down on the surface of a vertically installed plate-type cooling plate, and the raw material liquid is frozen and adhered to the surface of the cooling plate to form an ice plate. Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 7-8175 discloses a method in which a raw material liquid is allowed to flow down into a vertically disposed cooling cylinder, which is frozen and adhered to the inner surface of the cooling cylinder to form an ice column, which is crushed into ice confections. Is disclosed. All of these methods have the disadvantage that the production equipment must be specially installed.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION The beverage containing frozen jelly of the present invention comprises:
By using frozen jelly instead of ice in various situations where ice is used for beverages, a feature based on the difference from ice comes out. Hereinafter, the frozen jelly-containing beverage of the present invention will be described by taking a sherbet-like jelly-containing beverage as an example. The sherbet-like jelly used in the present invention is manufactured in each of the steps of measurement → mixing → heating → cooling → freezing → crushing. The gelling agent is obtained by adding the gelling agent to water and dissolving by heating, cooling the aqueous solution to a temperature below the gel point of the gelling agent, freezing the solidified gel, and subjecting the frozen gel to a crushing step. The above-mentioned freezing → pulverization can be replaced with pulverization → freezing.

The gelling agent used in the present invention may be one or more of carrageenan, roast bean gum, gellan gum, agar, gelatin, pectin, alginic acid, sodium alginate, tamarind seed polysaccharide, xanthan gum, and other pastes. Is raised. The amount of the gelling agent may be generally 0.5 to 5.0% by weight, preferably 1.0 to 2.0%, based on the gel. If necessary, about 0.01 to 0.5% of salts such as calcium lactate and trisodium citrate can be added. Further, one or more of guar gum, cod gum, karaya gum, soybean dietary fiber, and cellulose can be used in combination at about 0.01 to 1%.

[0013] The gel obtained by the above method is frozen.
For example fruit juice, carbonated drink, coffee drink,
Various flavors and colors are imparted by adding milk (for coffee and tea), sugar water, syrup, granular foods, or the like, or by using one or more of them instead of water. The syrup used in the present invention is an aqueous solution containing a sweetener such as sugar water, a coloring agent, a sour agent, a flavor, a seasoning, and the like. Among these, sugars such as sugar,
Aspartame, stevia, thaumatin and others. Sugar-flavored foods can be flavored as appropriate.

The above-mentioned granular foods include, for example, gel foods such as jelly or the like cut into small pieces, fruits and vegetables cut into small pieces, pulp of juice, cocoa powder and the like. The method of adding the syrup or the granular food may be either before or after adding the gelling agent to the water. Further, it may be added when mixing with a beverage. The added amount of the syrup or the granular food may be 0.01 to 35% based on the gel.

As a method for freezing a gel in the present invention,
An aqueous solution obtained by adding a gelling agent to water and heat-dissolving is added, and the mixture is frozen at −25 ° C. or lower in a gelled ice can. The resulting frozen dessert has a texture that makes it lightly crushed when chewed, and is a substance in which solids such as pulp content of fruit juice and cut jelly, taste, color, aroma, and the like are uniformly dispersed. The frozen gel is chopped with a chopper or the like and a crushing step is added to obtain the sherbet-like jelly used in the present invention.

[0016]

The frozen jelly-containing beverage of the present invention has characteristics unique to frozen jelly based on the difference from ice by using frozen jelly instead of ice in various situations where ice is used in beverages. The operation will be described by taking, as an example, a beverage containing sherbet-like jelly as a beverage containing frozen jelly. The beverage containing sherbet-like jelly of the present invention does not become liquid but maintains a sherbet-like shape. For example, a beverage with an unprecedented sensation is obtained such that the flavor does not mix even if milk-like sherbet jelly is added to coffee. Ice jelly that is still in a jelly state even after freezing and thawing can be added to a drink (juice, cola, etc.), and the drink can be cooled like ice without diluting and eaten. By making the frozen and thawed ice jelly into a sherbet-like form, it becomes more juicy when added to a drink (juice, cola, etc.), and can be eaten with a texture that disappears as if chewed. It consists of a combination of a sherbet-like jelly and a beverage stored in separate containers, and it becomes a sherbet-like jelly-containing beverage just by mixing just before eating and drinking (no hardware such as a mixer is required).

EFFECTS OF THE INVENTION In various drinks using ice, by using frozen jelly instead of ice, the characteristic of frozen jelly based on the difference from ice is that it is in a jelly state even when frozen and thawed, and the drink is thinned. It is possible to provide an edible beverage that can be cooled like ice without being consumed. A beverage containing frozen jelly, particularly a beverage containing sherbet-like jelly, which does not require a hardware such as a mixer can be provided. It is possible to provide ice water without unevenness in color and taste, in which sherbet-like ice, which is uniformly seasoned as a whole, is evenly dispersed in a beverage without any special equipment.
It is possible to provide a new beverage with a frozen dessert that can enjoy a texture that disappears as it is melted when chewed.
