Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a product and method of providing a fluid beverage product.
  • the present invention relates to an instant product for dissolving in hot or cold water comprising a pelletized form of a spray dried product, especially a rooibos tea product.
  • the plant product is steeped in very hot water for a period of time to produce an infusion.
  • the hot water infusion is drunk as a hot beverage but can also be cooled to produce a cold or iced beverage.
  • the beverage is consumed by large numbers of people at a store, or the like, it is easy to keep a pot of hot beverage prepared for customers. For less frequently consumed products, it is more difficult to prepare a per customer product without an often inconvenient portion of time passing before the product is prepared.
  • the present invention relates to providing a plant based drink concentrate tablet. Particularly by taking a spray dried form of a plant drink such as rooibos tea and combining it with effervescent, binders and disintegrants. A quick dissolving tablet which is soluble in hot or cold water is produced.
  • the present invention relates to a single serving tablet for preparing a plant based drink comprising: a) a single serving of a spray dried plant based drink powder; b) an effervescing agent; c) a binding agent; and d) a disintegrant.
  • the present invention relates to a process for the preparation of a cold water soluble plant based drink tablet comprising: a) obtaining a spray dried powder concentrate of a plant based drink; b) mixing the concentrate with an effervescing agent, a binding agent and a disintegrant; c) tableting the mix.

  • the terms “including” and/or “having”, as used herein, are defined as comprising (i.e., open language).
  • the term “coupled”, as used herein, is defined as connected, although not necessarily directly, and not necessarily mechanically.
  • plant based drink refers to a water extract of caffeinated and non-caffeinated plant materials that are considered teas and coffee type drinks. This includes leaf teas, rooibos and other herbal teas and coffees.
  • Rooibos tea is the tea leaf obtained from Aspalathus linearis in both green and red forms.
  • plant based drink also includes a product of the blending of two or more of any of the above tea or coffee type products.
  • Tea or coffee can be extracted in hot water. The plant material is preferably from fresh product, however, any plant material designed for making a tea, herbal tea or a coffee is usable.
  • the extraction with water having a temperature from around 60 degrees C to about 100 degrees C is accomplished for a period of about 2 to 10 minutes. On a larger scale this can be carried out in a steam jacketed vessel with appropriate agitation.
  • the plant material is separated from the aqueous extraction. This can be accomplished by filtration or use of a screw press and then passing hot liquid through a centrifuge to remove fines.
  • a single serving of a spray dried, plant based drink is turned into a powder by conventional spray dry techniques.
  • rooibos tea is brewed in the normal manner for brewing tea and the liquid tea extraction spray dried to a granular or pelletized form.
  • Such a form is instantly soluble in either hot or cold water.
  • This process of drying is a one step rapid process and eliminates additional processing.
  • the liquid feed is pumped through an atomizer device that produces fine droplets into the main drying chamber.
  • Atomizers vary with rotary, single fluid, two-fluid, and ultrasonic designs. These different styles have different advantages and disadvantages depending on the application of the spray drying required.
  • a spray nozzle is used in place of an atomizer for a different dispersion rate.
  • the hot drying gas can be passed as a co-current or counter-current flow to the atomizer direction.
  • the co-current flow enables the particles to have a lower residence time within the system and the particle separator (typically a cyclone device) operates more efficiently.
  • the counter-current flow method enables a greater residence time of the particles in the chamber and is usually paired with a fluidized bed system.

  • the counter-current flow method enables a greater residence time of the particles in the chamber and is usually paired with a fluidized bed system.
  • a rooibos powder approximately 300 to I OOOmg would constitute a single serving of rooibos powder.
  • Effervescing agents are those agents which generate a gas such as carbon dioxide. They are useful in that not only do they aid in the dispersion of the drink powder from the tablet form into cold water, but they produce a cream or head associated with drinks such as espresso. Accordingly, selecting an agent properly can turn the drink into an espresso type drink or just a drink having a visual foam head. Examples of such effervescent agents include sodium bicarbonate but other compositions are known in the art. [022] Binding agents are well known in the art. They are selected for their compression properties and aid in allowing the ingredients to bind together to form a tablet.
  • Tablets prepared by conventional means with acceptable excipients such as binding agents (e.g., pregelatinised maize starch, polyvinylpyrrolidone or hydroxypropyl methylcellulose); fillers (e.g., lactose, microcrystalline cellulose or calcium hydrogen phosphate); lubricants (e.g., magnesium stearate, talc or silica); disintegrants (e.g., potato starch, microcrystalline cellulose or sodium starch glycolate); or wetting agents (e.g., sodium lauryl sulphate).
  • binding agents e.g., pregelatinised maize starch, polyvinylpyrrolidone or hydroxypropyl methylcellulose
  • fillers e.g., lactose, microcrystalline cellulose or calcium hydrogen phosphate
  • lubricants e.g., magnesium stearate, talc or silica
  • disintegrants e.g., potato starch, microcrystalline cellulose or sodium starch glycolate
  • Acidifiers such as citric acid.
  • Flow agents such as silicon dioxide and ingredients used primarily as fillers such as magnesium stearate.
  • a heat and or cold stable sweetener or artificial sweetener is added.
  • the sweetener is sucralose. Sucralose is approximately 600 times as sweet as sucrose, twice as sweet as saccharin and four times as sweet as aspartame and unlike aspartame it can be used in a broad range of temperatures and pH conditions and has a long shelf life.
  • the ingredients are mixed thoroughly. Enough of the mixture is isolated such that a single dose of drink powder is contained within the mix. In one embodiment the amount is between about 300 and IOOOmg in another between about 500mg and 800mgs of powder, for example, rooibos powder.
  • the mix is tableted according to normal, regularly accepted methods to produce initially an uncoated friable tablet. The tablet, because of its friable nature, quickly disintegrates and with the addition of the disintegrant, easily dissolves in cold water.
  • a tablet of the present invention can be collected and either placed in a container or individually blister packed to protect them from premature disintegration.
  • a tablet is placed in a glass or cup with an appropriate amount of water and the tablet is allowed to effervesce and dissolve to form a liquid drink, such as an espresso drink, tea drink, or the like.
  • Example 1 Preparation of Extracted Plant Material and Stray Dried Powder [026] A quantity of water is brought to boil a and a single serving of rooibos tea (Aspalathus Linearis herba) in the form of sticks and leaves is steeped in the water for a period of a couple minutes or more, as necessary, to prepare water based herbal rooibos tea.
  • rooibos tea Aspalathus Linearis herba
  • a single serving of rooibos powder prepared in Example 1 is mixed with sodium bicarbonate, citric acid, microcrystalline cellulose, Aerosil (flow agent), magnesium stearate and sucralose to form a well distributed mixture.
  • the mixture is lightly pelletized to form a single friable table containing a single serving. The table crushes easily under the pressure of the fingers and dissolves quickly upon placement into hot or cold water to yield a single serving hot or cold rooibos drink.

Abstract

La présente invention porte sur un procédé de préparation d'une portion individuelle d'une extraction aqueuse à base de plantes en tant que boisson. Une portion individuelle séchée par pulvérisation, par exemple de la poudre séchée par pulvérisation de thé rouge africain rooibos, est mélangée avec un agent effervescent, un agent liant et un agent désintégrant pour former un comprimé friable capable de se mélanger rapidement avec de l'eau pour former une boisson de type thé ou café ou une boisson de type expresso.
