[Examples]

<Examples and Comparative Examples>

[Manufacture of milk-containing tea beverage packaged in a container of the embodiment]

According to the formulation of Table 1, a beverage was prepared. The crushed black tea leaves are 50% cumulative mass particle size (D50) produced in India: 8.2 μm, 90% cumulative mass particle size (D90): 24.8 μm. After thorough stirring, 190 g of the sterilized beverage was filled in a stainless steel tank, sealed, and retort sterilized. Then, a milk-containing tea beverage packaged in the container of the example was obtained. Further, the content of the pulverized tea leaves contained in the milk-containing tea beverage packaged in the container was 3.0 g per 1 L of the beverage, and the milk solid content was 3.5% by mass.

[Table 1]

[Preparation of milk-containing tea beverage in container packaging of Comparative Example]

As a milk-containing tea beverage packaged in a container of a comparative example, a PET bottled black tea beverage (product name: black tea flower, manufactured by Coca-Cola Co., Ltd.) of a commercial product was used.

[Functional evaluation]

The functional evaluation of the milk tea of the containers of the examples and the comparative examples was carried out by 30 functional inspectors. Specifically, each functional inspector evaluated the evaluation items shown in Table 2 in a five-level evaluation. The average scores of the respective scores are shown in Table 2.

As shown in Table 2, regarding "the palatability of the whole", "the performance of the tea feeling", and the "milk feeling" Any of the "strongness" and "taste of the taste" were confirmed to be higher than the beverages of the comparative examples.

According to the above results, it is possible to use the pulverized tea leaves in an amount of 1 g or more and 6 g or less per 1 g of the milk solid content, and 0.02 g or more and 0.2 g or less per 1 g of the milk solid content. Gives a more full tea sensation than the previous one, and is excellent in palatability. In other words, in the manufacture of a milk-containing tea beverage in a container package, by using the pulverized tea leaves, the amount of the tea leaves is suppressed, and a sufficient tea feeling is imparted, thereby obtaining a milk tea container-packaged container having excellent palatability. Moreover, it is shown that not only the amount of tea used is small, but also a sufficient tea feeling can be provided without extracting tea, and the palatability is excellent. It is presumed that the reason is that since the container is packaged without separating the milk-containing tea beverage by solid-liquid separation, the milk-containing tea beverage contains both the soluble solid component and the insoluble solid component of the crushed tea leaf, especially In the sterilization step, the heating temperature is higher, and the holding time is longer at the temperature, so that the sterilization step is carried out for a long time in a state containing the pulverized tea leaves at a relatively high temperature, and as a result, the pulverization can be obtained in a plurality of kinds and in a large amount. A tea component such as a soluble solid component or an insoluble solid component contained in tea leaves.
