(see application No. 99103796, M. C. C12G 3/06; A23L 2/385, publ. 20.01.2001).

The disadvantages of this composition include multicomponent and low organoleptic characteristics of the finished drink.

Known dry mix for the preparation of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks containing mint, thyme and lavender in the ratio of mint, thyme, lavender 1: (0.3-1.5) :( 1-3) (RU patent No. 2043040, M.cl. A23L 2/39; C12G 3/00, A23F 3/34, publ. 09/10/1995).

The composition of the dry mixture allows you to increase the biological effect of drinks while reducing the number of components in the dry mixture, as well as create drinks that have an extended spectrum of action for preventive purposes for widespread use.

Famous drinks have a harmoniously linked aromatic and flavoring bouquet with a predominance of citral-honey flavor.

From the description of this patent it is known that ready-made drinks have the following spectrum of actions for prophylactic purposes: bronchodilator, antiseptic, bactericidal, antispasmodic, antitoxic, choleretic, sedative, tonic, designed to enhance immunity, prevent diseases of the cardiovascular and central nervous systems, gastrointestinal intestinal tract.

However, since the composition of the dry mixture containing peppermint, lavender, thyme includes biologically active substances, such as borneol, cineole, which have a camphor smell, ready-made drinks from the known dry mixture have a very peculiar aroma, in the tone of which there is a camphor tone.

The disadvantages of the known composition include the fact that its constituent components exhibit well-known properties and actions traditional for these components and do not give ready-made drinks such demanded and very important preventive properties as the ability to remove heavy metals and radionuclides from the body and cancer prevention diseases.

Thus, the technical result to which the claimed invention is directed is to create a dry mix for the production of soft drinks and alcoholic beverages, the small number of components of which improves the organoleptic characteristics of the finished drinks, in particular giving them a gentle, exciting, very pleasant aroma with a bright tone of dried fruits with a predominance of pear, slightly astringent taste with a resinous tone in the aftertaste.

An additional technical result, to the solution of which the claimed invention is directed, is the creation of a dry mixture for the production of soft drinks and alcoholic beverages, the small amount of components of which provides ready-made drinks with additional preventive properties, in particular the ability to remove heavy metals from the body and prevent cancer.

The specified technical result is achieved by the fact that the known dry mixture for the preparation of soft drinks and alcoholic drinks containing plant components, according to the invention as plant components contains viburnum fruits, fruits and shoots of magnolia vine and oregano grass in the following ratio of components in wt.%:

viburnum (fruits) 53-70 lemongrass (fruits) 9-15 lemongrass (shoots) 9-15 oregano (grass) 12-17.

The applicant has experimentally established that the use of plant components of viburnum fruits, fruits and shoots of lemongrass and oregano in the claimed proportions allows you to create a dry mix, a small number of components which improves the organoleptic characteristics of the finished drinks, in particular gives them a gentle, exciting, very pleasant aroma with a bright tone of dried fruit with a predominance of pear, a slightly astringent taste with a resinous tone in the aftertaste.

The use in the composition of the dry mixture as plant components of the fruits of viburnum, fruits and shoots of lemongrass and oregano in the claimed proportions, allows you to give ready-made drinks additional properties that are very popular in our time, but are not present in ready-made drinks, in particular, such as the ability to remove from the body heavy metals and radionuclides and cancer prevention.

The organoleptic characteristics obtained using the inventive composition of plant materials in the indicated proportions are unexpected for the plant components used in the inventive mixture, which allows us to conclude that an unexpected effect is obtained, unexpected since none of the components of the inventive mixture contains the taste and aroma and from the prior art does not follow the possibility of achieving the claimed mixture obtained organoleptic characteristics, that is, from the prior art not following it blows the possibility of achieving the claimed mixture of the technical result indicated by the applicant.

Giving ready-made drinks an additional preventive effect is ensured by the inclusion in the composition of the dry mixture of viburnum fruits, biologically active substances of which are able to bind and remove strontium, cobalt, radionuclides from the body, and contribute to the prevention of cancer.

The quantitative composition of the components is selected experimentally by the authors, approved by the tasting committee, which evaluated the finished drinks prepared on the basis of the inventive mixture:

soft drinks at 23-25 points (excellent), alcoholic drinks at 9.2-10 points (excellent).

All the ingredients in the claimed mixture in the claimed proportions are harmoniously combined with each other, giving the finished drink excellent taste, improving its organoleptic characteristics in general.

In addition, the developed composition allows you to expand the used range of dry mixes for soft drinks and alcoholic beverages in the consumer market.

When creating a new composition, not only the biological value of the components and the availability of their blanks were taken into account, but also the organoleptic value of each of the ingredients. Each of the ingredients was individually introduced into the composition, studying the taste and aroma of each of them, their influence on each other, the influence of the quantitative ratios of the included ingredients on the taste and aroma of the finished drinks were examined.

Obtained using the inventive dry mix drinks allow us to talk about the non-obviousness of the solution, since in this case there is the use of known parts in the known composition in a different combination, in a different quantitative ratio with an unexpected result.

Reducing or increasing the weight amount of the components included in the mixture leads to a loss of organoleptic properties, the product acquires a smooth specific aroma and a rough taste.

The inventive dry mixture to obtain a soft drink is obtained as follows.

Before preparing the mixture, each of the components of the mixture is prepared.

The fruits of viburnum are harvested in clear weather after the first frost, when they lose their characteristic bitterness - before that, the fruits are practically not edible. The collected fruits are dried in air in a thin layer, then dried in ovens or dryers at 40-60 ° C. Dried raw materials are threshed and foreign impurities and stalks are separated.

Oregano grass is dried under a canopy, in the shade or in dryers at a temperature not exceeding 35 ° C. The grass is laid out in a loose layer. Dry grass is threshed.

The fruits of lemongrass are harvested at full maturity in September, cutting off the brushes. Freshly picked berries generously give away juice and quickly lose their presentation, so the fruits of lemongrass must be processed. The fruits of lemongrass are dried and dried at a temperature of 35-40 ° C in dryers with forced ventilation or in the sun.

The upper part of the shoots of lemongrass up to 20 cm long is cut or plucked in July. The collected raw materials are dried at a temperature of 35-40 ° C. The raw materials are laid out in a thin layer. The end of drying is determined by the fragility of the shoots. At the beginning of drying, the raw materials should be turned over daily.
