SK 79-2021 U1

Technical field

The technical solution concerns a refreshing beverage product. The technical solution belongs to the food industry and gastronomy.

Prior art

A large number of soft drinks and energy drinks mixed for immediate consumption or even packaged in glass bottles, PET bottles or cans are known from the prior art. These soft and energy drinks are produced on various bases (tein, caffeine, quinine, etc. with a number of flavorings) such as: Ice Tea, Coca-Cola, Kofola, Vinea, Tonie, Sprite, Hell, Red Bull, Semtex etc.

They are also known e.g. combined fruit juice beverages as described in utility model SK8143Y1, which describes a beverage which comprises a mixture of wine, water, sugar and fruit chokeberry or mulberry juice.

Possible recipes for refreshing drinks are far from exhausted, so there is room to create another refreshing drink, which would be more durable and have antioxidant effects on the human body and thus fill the missing segment in the offer of drinks.

The result of this effort is a refreshing beverage product described in the present utility model.

The essence of the technical solution

The essence of the solution of the refreshing beverage product lies in the fact that the refreshing beverage product is a liquid mixture with three major components, where one major component is cane juice, the other major component is citrus juice and the third major component is water. The minor component is the addition of bamboo leaf extract and acerola extract. The proportion of individual components is as follows: - cane juice is 41% vol. up to 45% vol.

- citrus juice (lemon or lime) is 5,7% vol. up to 7.7% vol.

- water is 48.3% vol. up to 51.3% vol.

- the yield of bamboo leaves and acerola is 0.02 g / liter to 0.04 g / liter of the total volume of the beverage product, the yield of bamboo leaves and acerola being 1: 1.

The total volume of the beverage product has a sugar content of 80 g / liter to 140 g / liter and a pH <4.

The basic production process consists of mixing cane juice, lime juice and water with the required sugar content and adding the addition of bamboo leaf extract and acerola extract. The finished product beverage can be further diluted with water and / or ice by the beverage user.

The advantages of the refreshing beverage product according to the technical solution are evident from its effects, which are manifested externally. The effects are that the market is enriched by another refreshing beverage product. The advantages are further that the desired pH must be below 4.0 in order to prevent the possible germination of spores from fibrous fungi, which are highly resistant to heat treatment and pasteurization. The product differs from other cane juice products by its higher stability after pasteurization, it is more resistant especially to oxidation and aging of the product. The negative effect of pasteurization on the taste and color of the beverage product is also reduced, as the beverage product according to the utility model becomes tastier and has a brighter color. This property is ensured by the addition of bamboo leaf extract and acerola extract. Bamboo leaf extract replaces synthetic stabilizers such as BHA, TBHQ, BHT, propyl gallate and sodium nitrate. Its effect is to prevent oxidation of lipids by quenching free radicals and oxygen. In addition to protecting the product against aging, bamboo leaf extract has a positive effect on humans. Its consumption improves the immune system, protects blood vessels and heart and lowers blood pressure. Acerola extract contains a large amount of natural vitamin C, which acts as an antioxidant and, together with bamboo leaf extract, increases the antioxidant effect. Different concentrations of bamboo leaf and acerola extract were added to achieve suitable antioxidant properties. Tests were performed with amounts of 0.001 to 0.05 g / liter of product. These tests examined the antioxidant effect of extracts added individually and in combination of both. The most suitable result with emphasis on the combination of sensory and antioxidant properties was recorded in the range of 0.02 g / liter to 0.04 g / liter with the combination of both extracts.
