Development of formulation and technology for the production of functional drinks using of cranberry fruits
Abstract
Creation of new products with scientifically substantiated and proven properties that reduce the risk of developing diseases that are directly dependent on nutrition, and improve health due to the presence of various nutrients in their composition is one of the promising areas for improving the health of the population. The soft drinks market today is replete with both domestic and foreign manufacturers. In addition, public catering enterprises have the opportunity to sell their own products, which necessitates the improvement of the quality of drinks and their functional properties. A person consumes soft drinks throughout his life, while they represent the optimal basis for enrichment with biologically active food substances, since they most affect the endoecological rehabilitation of the human body. Natural non-alcoholic drinks based on healthy plant materials are becoming increasingly popular. We have developed soft drink compositions using cranberry, sea buckthorn, Japanese quince (chaenomeles), ginkgo biloba and basil leaves, containing vitamins A, C, E, known for their antioxidant properties. In order to preserve raw materials, shock freezing and dehydration by means of convective drying were used with a sparing temperature heating regime not exceeding 45 ℃, which made it possible to preserve the most vulnerable vitamin C to heat treatment. As a result of experimental studies, recipes and technologies for the production of drinks have been developed, as well as technical and technological maps indicating organoleptic indicators and energy value. Dry matter and acidity, which corresponds to the accepted allowable values have been determined. The values of the chemical composition of drinks have been obtained, allowing to state that, according to the content of the microelement potassium, drinks belong to general health-improving functional drinks, and, according to the content of vitamin C, to antioxidant and immune-supporting functional drinks.
