Description

[0001]
TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention provides a single-use seal filled with a syrup for making a beverage having a pH of 4 or more, which can be made into a non-alcoholic beverage or a low-alcohol beverage that is safe for drinking by being diluted with carbonated water or water. The present invention relates to a beverage syrup in a small container.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Zhuhai and other syrups for making alcoholic cocktails are generally composed mainly of sugar, fruit juice, acid and fragrance, and are used for flavoring and flavoring high alcoholic beverages such as shochu divided by water or carbonated water. I have. However, since the types of syrups (concentrated liquids) are limited to sweet and sour types such as lemon, grapefruit, and cassis, sufficient ideas have been devised to easily and inexpensively make a favorite low alcoholic beverage. I can't say that. Syrup containers are also limited to large capacity of 500 ml or more for Chu-Hi.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
This is because it is assumed that the conventional syrup for making Chu-Hi is large in volume and used for business. The only ingredient that can be made for sour alcoholic beverages is that it is used for business purposes and is used on the assumption that it will be used many times after opening. This is because it is necessary to increase the acidity of the syrup (concentrated solution) such that the pH is 4 or less.
[0004]
In addition to this, the conventional syrup for making chu-hi has a high sugar content of BRIX 30 or more and also contains a preservative to suppress the propagation of various bacteria. Naturally, since it is assumed that it is used for business purposes, it has a large capacity, so that it is too much for individual use and cannot be practically used for personal use.
[0005]
The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a syrup in a sealed container for realizing easily and effectively producing various types of chuhi. More specifically, an object of the present invention is to provide a syrup in a sealed container that can be made into a drinkable safe chu-hi by being diluted with carbonated water or water.
[0006]
[Means for Solving the Invention]
In order to achieve the above object, in the present invention, a single-use type sealed small container such as a potion pack or a sachet is filled with a syrup for making a Chu-Hi beverage, and a single-use type is used. By using a high-concentration alcohol solution as a syrup for making a Chu-Hi beverage filled in a sealed small container, the alcohol concentration of the Chu-Hi produced by dilution is ensured, and at the same time, stored in a sealed small container. It is characterized by enhancing the bactericidal action in the stored state, imparting properties that can be endured as a syrup for preparing a Chu-Hi beverage, and solving the problem of hygiene during storage.
[0007]
By eliminating the problem of hygiene during storage according to the present invention, it is not necessary to improve the preservability by increasing the sugar content or strengthening the acidity of the syrup for preparing a Chu-Hi beverage, and it is bound by the sugar content and acidity. Without any limitation (for example, without being limited to lemon high or lime high), the degree of freedom in the types of chu-his that can be provided as syrup is increased, and various types of chu-his can be created.
[0008]
More specifically, the present invention provides a single-use sealed small container beverage syrup and method as follows.

[0025]
According to the present invention, there is a problem in terms of microbial stability by aseptically filling a single-use sealed small container such as a single-use portion pack container or a small-capacity pouch container as shown in FIG. The present invention provides a syrup for preparing a beverage or a syrup for preparing an alcoholic beverage having a pH of 4 or more without syrup. Further, according to the present invention, sweet and sour tastes can be obtained by increasing the alcohol concentration of a syrup (concentrated liquid) filled in a single-use sealed small container such as a single-use portion pack container or a small-capacity pouch container. Thus, a novel syrup for producing alcoholic beverages having a small amount of syrup is provided, and syrups for producing new beverages which have not been distributed until now will be distributed.
[0026]
Hereinafter, as a related art related to the present invention, an invention of a method for producing a liqueur that is divided into carbonated water and drinkable has been issued from a kokuka beverage (Japanese Patent No. 2849999). Non-alcoholic extract, which was an alcohol extract from beer, was not considered.
[0027]
Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 61-162166 discloses an invention in which a potion pack is sold with carbonated alcoholic beverages, but the pH can be increased to 4 or more by aseptically filling small single-use containers. Chu-Hi syrup specialized in the Japanese was not considered.
[0028]
An example of a potion pack packed with a syrup having a pH of 4 or more has been about "cream" for a long time, but this is not for diluting this "cream" and drinking it as it is (beverage concentrate). , Which is used for coffee (a so-called “beverage supplement concentrate”). Recently, cocoa and coffee flavored syrups of Nestlé Alpha Ole have been released, but these are also not intended to be diluted and consumed as is (drink concentrate), but to be put in milk. It is assumed that. In any case, these are not intended for alcoholic beverages and are not suitable for use in alcoholic beverages.
[0029]
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
For example, a beverage concentrate containing a non-alcoholic beer base, water and beer flavor according to the present invention, once used and aseptically filled in a small container, is diluted with alcohol and carbonated water to form a white clean foam, It becomes a beer-like alcoholic beverage with hop bitterness, not sour. In other words, according to the present invention, it is possible to produce a syrup that gives rise to a clean white beer, has a bitter taste of hops, is not sour, and is a beer-like alcoholic beverage. Since such syrup has a pH of more than 4, it cannot be found in conventional large-volume chu-hi syrup which is used repeatedly by repeatedly opening it because of the problem of microbial control.
[0030]
Similarly, according to the present invention, it is possible to commercialize a syrup having a low BRIX since the use of the syrup is not repeated many times, and there is no problem in controlling microorganisms.
[0031]
Since the conventional syrup for chuhai does not contain alcohol, when making chuhai, alcohol such as carbonated water and shochu is required, and preparation and work are complicated. However, by using the beverage syrup in a single-use sealed small container containing ethanol according to the present invention, a chu-hi can be easily prepared simply by dilution with carbonated water or water.
[0032]
For example, if a syrup of 35% alcohol is made, a chu-hi of 7% alcohol can be made only by diluting it five times with carbonated water. In addition, since the alcohol concentration is high, there is no concern about propagation of microorganisms, and no preservative is required. By filling the disposable syrup into a single-use disposable portion pack or pouch pouch having a capacity of about 25 ml, it is possible to easily prepare a cup of low alcoholic beverage having a desired thickness.
[0033]
As described above, in the beverage syrup containing single-use sealed small containers containing ethanol according to the present invention, not only does it not only eliminate the problem of microbial control but also obtain a germicidal effect by including ethanol, but also in making chu This also makes it possible to simplify the work.
[0034]
In addition, the conventional syrup for chuhai is a content ingredient that can only be used for making sour alcoholic beverages. However, according to the present invention, since the pH does not need to be 4 or less, the concentrated solution (syrup for chuhai) also has a lemon taste or the like. It is not limited to those with a strong sour taste, and the type of Chu Hi made by diluting the concentrate (syrup for Chu Hi) is not limited to those with a strong sour taste such as lemon high or lime high. Various chu-his can be manufactured.
[0035]
Such as, for example, beer high, whiskey high, sake high, green tea high, oolong high, barley high, mixed tea high, herb high, turmeric high, Chinese herbal medicine high, cream high, cocoa high, coffee high, or these Something like mixed highs can be mentioned. Of course, according to the present invention, lemon high, grapefruit high, orange high, summer orange high, pineapple high, lime high, orange high, kiwi fruit high, acerola high, hawthorn high, grape high, peach high, pear high, melon high, strawberry high, mango high, passion fruit high A chu-hi can also be produced by appropriately using or mixing a strong acidity such as Muscat high, banana high or blue berry high.
[0036]
Further, the conventional syrup for Chu-Hi is a content component that can only be made with sour alcoholic beverages, and is made on the assumption that it is divided with alcohol and carbonated water. However, the beverage syrup in the single-use sealed small container according to the present invention, as shown in FIG. 2, after opening the lid of the single-use sealed small container beverage syrup (FIG. 2A) (FIG. 2B), The beverage syrup, which is the content, is poured into a drinking container such as a cup (FIG. 2 (c)), and water or carbonated water is poured into the syrup for dilution (FIG. 2 (d)), thereby producing a diluted beverage. In addition, in the case of certain liqueurs or vodkas, for example, as shown in FIG. 3, the lid of a single-use sealed small-sized beverage syrup (FIG. 3 (a)) After opening the syrup (FIG. 3 (b)), the beverage syrup, which is the content, can be drunk as it is in a so-called "sake".
[0037]
And this is a new effect due to the miniaturization of the container filled with syrup (at least, because it is a white thing that can be drunk as it is in a conventional syrup filled in a "one shobo"). Should not be willing to drink it directly). As described above, in the beverage syrup in a single-use sealed small container according to the present invention, the container filled with the syrup is reduced in size, so that it is not necessary to open and close the lid many times, so that the syrup is once sterilized. Once filled, it can be stored very hygienically and can be used safely. In addition, once-consumed drinks can be made by filling things that can be consumed as they are even in a concentrated state (so-called "gulp"). It has an effect that it is easily provided for the purpose of the above.
[0038]
Thus, the beverage syrup in a single-use sealed small container according to the present invention can be used more easily than conventional syrups for Chu-Hi, and there is no restriction such as pH 4 or less and sugar content of BRIX 30 or more. Also, there is no need to add preservatives.
[0039]
The aseptic filling in the production of the beverage syrup in a single-use sealed small container according to the present invention is performed by sterilizing the filled syrup (heat sterilization, ultraviolet sterilization, microfilter, etc.) and then under a sterile environment such as an aseptic environment. This can be done by placing and filling. In addition, a raw material component mixing device can be mixed and aseptically filled by using a commercially available in-line blender device.
[0040]
In addition, for the sake of management, it is preferable that the place placed in the aseptic environment is as small as possible.However, the present invention uses a single-use sealed `` small '' container, so from the viewpoint of performing aseptic filling. ,convenient.
[0041]
