DESCRIPTION

LOW ALCOHOL DRINK

Technical Field

This invention relates to a production method for carbonated beverages with different flavors and low alcohol content.

Prior Art

Presently, while alcoholic beverages are consumed, they are drunk by adding water or sweetening agents such as fruit juice thereinto. Thus, beverages are ensured to be soft and different tastes are obtained as well. Instead of adding water or fruit juice to beverages before drinking, a range of beverages to which water is added or which is flavored with fruit juice is prepared during production.

Description of Invention

The invention is the production method of the beverages such as fruit flavors, coke and fruity soda pop, and a low alcohol and carbonated beverage by using various alcoholic beverage flavors. A flavored carbonated beverage with low alcohol content comprises ethanol or fermented alcohol; sodium benzoate solution or potassium sorbate solution as preservative; a sugar syrup selected from the group of sucrose, fructose, glucose or corn syrup; an acid solution selected from the group of citric acid solution, malic acid solution, tartaric acid solution as acidity regulator; a fruit flavor substance selected from the group of rosehip, apricot, plum, melon, rose, kiwi, strawberry, mango, almond, cactus juice, mandarin, orange, grape, lemon, raspberry, blackberry, sour cherry, peach, pear, avocado, vanilla, coconut, walnut, apple, cherry, Japanese medlar, watermelon, pomegranate, nectarine, banana, framboise, grapefruit, currant, clove, cinnamon, pineapple and green almond; a coloring agent to be selected according to the fruit flavor used; softened and/or carbonated water; an anti-turbidity agent; aniseed or a flavor selected from the group of vodka, rum, tequila, gin, whiskey; tonic flavor, sodium citrate or sodium chloride; coke or fruity soda pop flavor, and coke or fruity soda pop acid at certain ratios. Artificial sweetening agents such as aspartame, asesulphame, k-saccharine, sodium cyclamate are used instead of the sugar syrup in case of a light beverage production.

Production method of a low alcoholic fruit flavored carbonated beverage includes 9 steps. Firstly, the mixture which is produced by adding some water and sodium benzoate solution or potassium sorbate to the certain amount of sugar syrup selected from the group of sucrose, fructose, glucose or corn syrup is mixed for 2 to 45 minutes. After mixing, one of the citric acid, malic acid, tartaric acid solutions, sodium citrate solution or sodium chloride, ethanol or fermented alcohol and certain amount of sterilized and softened water are added to the mixture and it is mixed for 2 to 41 minutes again. Resulting mixture is kept for approximately 5 to 63 minutes and the air therein is allowed to be exhausted. This process is highly important step for the product formation. Mixing is continued at a low rate again after the air within the mixture is removed by resting. If the beverage is required to be plain, only aniseed or a flavor selected from the group of tequila, vodka, rum, gin, whiskey is added to this mixture; however, if the beverage is also required to include fruit flavor, both aniseed or a flavor selected from the group of tequila, vodka, rum, gin, whiskey, and a desired flavor selected from the group of rosehip, melon, apricot, plum, rose, kiwi, strawberry, mango, almond, cactus juice, mandarin, orange, green almond, grape, lemon, raspberry, blackberry, sour cherry, peach, pear, avocado, tropical, vanilla, coconut, walnut, apple, cherry, Japanese medlar, watermelon, pomegranate, nectarine, framboise, grapefruit, currant, clove, cinnamon, banana, pineapple are added to this mixture. Solution is mixed for 5 to 47 minutes following the addition. A powdered coloring agent is added to the mixture and it is mixed again for 5 to 47 minutes. Thereafter, an anti-turbidity agent which is dissolved in water is added to the mixture and it is mixed approximately for 1 to 14 minutes again. Softened and 1 %-98% of carbonated water at a ratio of 1/1 , 1/2, 1/3 or 1/4 is added to the resulting homogenous crude syrup and it is mixed for 2 to 53 minutes. The mixture obtained after this process is cooled to 3-15°C and sent to the filling unit. If the resulting beverage is required to be non-carbonated, only softened water is added to the resulting syrup at a rate of 1/1, 1/2 or 1/4. Fruit juice, fruit concentrate or fruit nectar can be used instead of the fruit flavor which is used during the production; but in this case, the amount of water to be added to the syrup should be decreased.

In another embodiment of the invention, in the method of producing another type, which includes a coke or fruity soda pop flavor, of the carbonated beverage with low alcohol content; the mixture which is obtained by mixing certain amount of softened water, ethanol or fermented alcohol and sodium benzoate or potassium sorbate solution with the sugar syrup selected from the group of sucrose, fructose, glucose or corn syrup for 3 to 40 minutes is kept for preferably 5 to 63 minutes and the air therein is allowed to be exhausted. Mixing is continued at a low rate after the air within the mixture is removed. Aniseed or a flavor selected from the group of tequila, rum, gin, whiskey, vodka flavors and thereafter a coke flavor substance or fruity soda pop flavor substance are added to this mixture. The mixture is mixed for 2 to 40 minutes. It is again mixed for 1 to 35 minutes after the coloring agent is added. Following this process, an anti-turbidity agent which is dissolved in water is added approximately at a ratio of 1/1 to the mixture. It is mixed again for 1 to 32 minutes after a coke acid or fruity soda pop acid is added thereto in order to ensure the taste and flavor integrity of the coke or fruity soda pop flavored beverage. 1% to 98% carbonated and softened water is added to the resulting crude syrup, or if the beverage is required to be non-carbonated, only the softened water is added at a ratio of 1/1 , 1/2, 1/3 or 1/4 and the syrup is mixed for 2 to 53 minutes. Following this process, the mixture which is cooled to 3 - 15°C is sent to the filling unit.

A flavored carbonated beverage with low alcohol content comprises 1%-16% by weight of ethanol or fermented alcohol; 0.0065%-10% by weight of sodium benzoate solution or potassium sorbate; 0.01 %-17% by weight of a sugar syrup selected from the group of sucrose, fructose, glucose or corn syrup; 0.006%-15% by weight of aniseed or a flavor selected from the group of tequila, gin, vodka, whiskey, rum flavors; 0.006%-15% by weight of tonic flavor; 0.0061 %-10% by weight of a fruit flavor substance; 4%-50% by weight of fruit juice, fruit nectar or fruit concentrate; 0.006%-15% by weight of 50% citric acid solution, malic acid solution or tartaric acid solution; 0.0001 %-8% by weight of preferably coloring agents dissolved in water; 0.0001 %-8% by weight of anti-turbidity agents; if produced as light, 0.001 %-15% by weight of an artificial sweetening agent selected from the group of aspartame, asesulphame, k-saccharine, sodium cyclamate; 0.0003%-17% by weight of sodium citrate solution or sodium chloride; 0.0058%-15% by weight of a coke flavor substance; 0.0058%-15% by weight of a coke acid substance; 0.0058%-15% by weight of a fruity soda pop flavor substance; 0.0058%-15% by weight of a fruity soda pop acid substance; softened and carbonated sterile water.

The flavor substances used in the production of low alcoholic beverage or low alcoholic flavored beverage can be used with or without coloring agent. In addition, coloring agents and anti-turbidity agents are used optionally. Whereas sucrose, fructose, glucose and corn syrups from the sugar syrups which are used to sweeten the low alcoholic beverage or low alcoholic flavored beverage can be used individually; the syrup which is obtained by mixing all of them at certain ratios can be used as well. Similarly, whereas the artificial sweetening agents can be used individually; the sweetening agent which is obtained by mixing all of them at certain ratios can be used as well. In addition to these, artificial sweetening agents and sucrose, fructose, glucose or corn syrup which includes sugar can also be used by mixing at certain ratios.
