Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a beverage exhibiting a lemon flavor suppressing deterioration of fresh feeling and generation of a deterioration smell, and improving palatability.SOLUTION: A jasmine tea extract is blended with the beverage exhibiting lemon flavor.

Description

本発明は、レモン風味を呈する飲料に関するものであり、詳細には、すっきりとしたレモン本来の香りを引き立たせることができるレモン風味を呈する飲料に関するものである。   The present invention relates to a beverage exhibiting a lemon flavor, and in particular, to a beverage exhibiting a lemon flavor that can enhance the natural scent of a fresh lemon.

レモンはフレッシュでフルーティな香味を有し、多くの人に好まれることから、飲食品に幅広く使用されている。例えば、果汁や輪切りにした果実を清涼飲料、紅茶、アルコール飲料などに入れて風味付けに用いたり、フライなどの揚げ物や焼き魚などに果実を搾った搾り汁を直接かけることによりさっぱりした風味を付与したり食材の臭みをマスキングしたりするなど、日常的に用いられている。しかしながら、レモン果汁やレモンフレーバーなどのレモン風味を呈する成分(特にシトラール)は安定性が低く、レモン風味を呈する飲料、調味料(ドレッシング)、キャンディー、アイスクリームなどの長期保存が可能な飲食品では、そのレモン風味が製造時の加熱中や保存中などに経時的に消失して飲食品に付与されたフレッシュ感が低下すること、さらに劣化臭などのオフフレーバーが生成して飲食品の品質を低下させることが知られ、レモン風味の効果が半減してしまうという問題があった。特に、酸性条件下においてその変質は著しく、レモン風味を呈する飲料においては、その香気に関する品質維持が重要課題となっている。   Lemon has a fresh and fruity flavor and is popular with many people, so it is widely used in food and drink. For example, fruit juice or sliced fruit can be used for flavoring in soft drinks, tea, alcoholic beverages, etc., or a fresh flavor can be imparted by directly squeezing the juice of the fruit into fried foods such as fries or grilled fish It is used on a daily basis, such as masking the odor of ingredients. However, lemon-flavored and lemon-flavored components (especially citral) have low stability, and beverages, seasonings (dressing), candy, ice cream, and other foods that can be stored for a long time, such as lemon flavor. , Its lemon flavor disappears over time during heating and storage during production, and the freshness imparted to the food and drink is reduced, and further off-flavors such as deteriorated odors are generated to improve the quality of the food and drink. It has been known that the effect of lemon flavor is reduced by half. In particular, the alteration is remarkable under acidic conditions, and in beverages with a lemon flavor, maintaining the quality of the aroma has become an important issue.

レモン風味の劣化臭を抑制する方法について、種々の提案がある。例えば、半発酵茶葉、発酵茶葉等の溶媒抽出物を含有するシトラール又はシトラール含有製品の劣化臭生成抑制剤(特許文献1)、エピガロカテキンを含有するシトラール又はシトラール含有製品の劣化臭生成抑制剤(特許文献2)、シトラール又はシトラール含有製品に、エピガロカテキン、エピガロカテキンガレート、没食子酸、クエルシトリン、アスコルビン酸等の抗酸化成分と、鉄イオン等の遷移金属イオンを含有させることによる、シトラール又はシトラール含有製品の劣化臭生成抑制方法(特許文献3)などが挙げられる。   There are various proposals for a method for suppressing the deterioration odor of lemon flavor. For example, citral containing citral or citral-containing products containing solvent extracts such as semi-fermented tea leaves and fermented tea leaves (Patent Document 1), citral containing epigallocatechin or odor producing inhibitors for citral-containing products (Patent Document 2), by containing an antioxidant component such as epigallocatechin, epigallocatechin gallate, gallic acid, quercitrin, ascorbic acid, and transition metal ions such as iron ions in citral or citral-containing products, Examples thereof include a method for inhibiting the generation of odor of citral or citral-containing products (Patent Document 3).

First, a beverage (B) having a lemon flavor is prepared by adding 6.6 parts by weight of granulated sugar, 1.1 parts by weight of lemon juice, and 0.17 parts by weight of lemon flavor to 100 parts by weight of ion-exchanged water, and adjusting the acidity and pH A beverage having a lemon flavor was prepared by adjusting the pH to 3.9 with the agent. Citric acid, L-ascorbic acid, tripotassium citrate, and sodium L-ascorbate were used as the acidulant and pH adjuster.
The jasmine tea extract (A) prepared in 1) above was mixed with a beverage (B) having a lemon flavor to prepare a lemon flavor-containing jasmine tea beverage (C) having a pH of 3.90. Under the present circumstances, the jasmine tea extract was mixed so that it might become 21 weight part with respect to the whole drink.
Jasmine tea-free beverage (B) with a lemon flavor and jasmine tea-added lemon-flavored beverage (C) were each hot-packed (filling temperature: 82-86 ° C., TALC can (190 mL capacity)). . Using this as a control (evaluation point: 5 points), sensory evaluation was performed on the change in lemon flavor intensity of the beverage having a lemon flavor after retort sterilization under three kinds of conditions (F values: 0.5, 14, 45). . Here, the F value indicates “time (minutes) when the food is heated at the reference temperature (121.1 ° C.)” when food is sterilized at 100 ° C. or higher. In general, it is an index of the bactericidal effect. That is, F value 2 represents the sterilization effect obtained when sterilization is performed at 121.1 ° C. for 2 minutes and F value 15 is performed at 121.1 ° C. for 15 minutes.

表1に、結果を示す。殺菌強度が強くなるにつれ、レモンフレーバーのフレッシュ感が低下するが、ジャスミン茶を添加した本発明のレモン風味を呈する飲料(C)は、ジャスミン茶無添加のレモン風味を呈する飲料(B)と比較して、レモンフレーバーのフレッシュ感が維持された。また、オフフレーバーの発生について確認したところ、本発明品(C)はほとんど感じられないレベルであり、ジャスミン茶抽出液を配合していない飲料(B)と比較して顕著に少なかった。   Table 1 shows the results. As the sterilization strength increases, the freshness of the lemon flavor decreases, but the beverage (C) having the lemon flavor of the present invention with the addition of jasmine tea is compared with the beverage (B) having a lemon flavor without the addition of jasmine tea. As a result, the freshness of the lemon flavor was maintained. Moreover, when it confirmed about generation | occurrence | production of the off-flavor, this invention product (C) was a level which is hardly felt, and there were notably few compared with the drink (B) which is not mix | blending the jasmine tea extract.
