Description

The invention relates to the food industry, in particular to the production of soft drinks containing natural plant extracts with a high content of biologically active substances with directed organoleptic characteristics, preventive properties, and reduced costs for the production of the product.

A composition for the preparation of a soft drink is known, containing concentrated raspberry juice and carrot juice, dry extract of red grape peel, citric acid, Raspberry flavor, sweetener (granulated sugar and fructose-glucose syrup), sodium chloride, food carbon dioxide and water ( RU, patent No. 2538119, IPC A23L 2/00, 2015).

The disadvantages of the known drink is the inappropriate use of jointly concentrated juice and flavoring as the main components, which leads to a decrease in the yield of biologically active substances and organoleptic properties of the product.

Known soft drink containing aloe, sugar, food additives and water (RU, patent No. 2330577, IPC A23L 2/00, 2008).

The disadvantage of this drink is the use of aloe in the form of a water-alcohol infusion (in the amount of 5%), which prevents the extraction with water-alcohol solutions, reduces the preventive properties and increases the cost of the product.

The non-alcoholic drink "Marsenika" is known, containing a concentrated base of extractive substances of plant materials, including coriander, oregano, rose hips, edible mushrooms, red rowan fruits, sugar, food acid, color, sodium benzoate, salt, carbon dioxide and water ( RU, patent No. 2108050, IPC A23L 2/00, 1998).

The disadvantages of the known soft drink is the multicomponent composition of plant materials, which creates a specific organoleptic characteristics and increased cost.

The closest technical solution to the claimed is a soft drink "Quince" containing peppermint, clary sage, wormwood, hops, carrot seeds, coriander, quince peel, quince juice, tea waste, color, sugar, citric acid, carbonated water (RU , patent No. 2067842, IPC A23L 2/00, 1996).

The disadvantages of the known drink are specific ingredients that do not grow in this region (tea, quince, sage), which increases its cost. In addition, the multicomponent nature of plant raw materials does not provide a high yield of biologically active substances in the created acidic environment, which reduces the organoleptic and preventive properties.

The technical objective of the present invention is to create a soft drink containing natural plant extracts with a high content of biologically active substances with directed organoleptic and preventive properties and reduce the cost of product production.

The technical result is achieved by the fact that the non-alcoholic drink contains as flavoring components a water-glycerin extract from blueberries, water-alcohol extracts from Echinacea purpurea and reindeer antler powder, the rest is drinking water.

Water-glycerin extract from blueberries - contains a wide range of nutritional components (sugars - glucose and fructose, organic acids - citric and malic, essential oils, carotenoids, vitamins and minerals, as well as biologically active substances, in particular, polyphenolic compounds - flavonoids, which are derivatives of L - phenylalanine and consisting of two aromatic rings.In the composition of blueberries, flavonoids are represented by anthocyanins, flavonols, flavanols, as well as stilbenes, tannins, phenolic acids, lignans.Flavonoids play an important role in the plant, protecting it from a number of both biotic, and abiotic stresses.

It should be noted that the presence of polyphenolic substances in the water-spit extract of the herb echinacea purpurea, the content of chicory acid, which determines immunomodulatory and antiviral activity. Caffeic and chlorogenic acids are also referred to concomitant phenylpropanoids. The second group of active ingredients are polysaccharides with immunomodulatory properties. The third group is alkylamides, which have an anti-inflammatory effect. The extraction with 55% ethyl alcohol makes it possible to increase the content of biologically active substances by 2.5 times, compared with their content in commercially obtained tinctures of echinacea purpurea.

In addition, the action of antioxidants, vitamins, which are included in an increased amount in the water-alcohol extract from the powder of reindeer antlers, is enhanced in the presence of hormones, enzymes, essential amino acids, as a result of which the nutritional and biological value of the combination of ingredients exceeds the sum of the effects of each of them in separately, which provides an enhanced tonic and adaptogenic effect of the drink. Due to the incoming raw materials of plant and animal origin in the form of an extract, the soft drink is enriched with all biologically valuable components, vitamins and microelements. In addition, at given quantitative ratios of the ingredients in the drink, it softens the stimulating effect of the water-glycerin extract from blueberries, as a result of which the finished drink exhibits a moderate tonic effect, improves the organoleptic and preventive properties of the drink, which proves that the claimed technical solution complies with the "INVENTORY STEP" criterion.

A new non-alcoholic drink has been obtained - transparent, with a mild taste and aroma of blueberries and Echinacea purpurea, with new improved organoleptic characteristics with high biological activity of the product. The ratio of components is chosen optimal for obtaining a soft drink with a harmonious berry taste. Therefore, the claimed technical solution meets the criterion of "INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY".

To prepare a functional drink, use:

- drinking water according to GOST R 51232-98 and SanPiN 2.1.1074-01 with hardness up to 1 mol/m for natural water and up to 0.2 mol/m for corrected water;

- rectified ethyl alcohol "Lux". Specifications according to GOST 5962-2019;

- natural raw glycerin in accordance with GOST 6823-2000 and the current regulatory documentation;

- powder of reindeer antlers GOST 4227-76;

- herb Echinacea purpurea GOST 937916;

- blueberries GOST 34219-2017 and the current regulatory documentation.

A soft drink is prepared in the following way: To obtain a water-glycerin extract from blueberries, 1.8 kg of blueberries are placed in the extractor, poured with a water-glycerin mixture (1:1), the ratio (raw material): water-glycerin mixture 1:15 is extracted at a temperature 50°C by the method of exhaustive extraction and get a water-glycerin extract of blueberries. To obtain a water-alcohol extract from the herb Echinacea purpurea, 1.3 kg of crushed raw materials with a particle diameter of 2-7 mm are placed in the extractor by extraction, with a 55% solution of ethyl alcohol, the ratio of raw materials: ethyl alcohol (55%) 1:10 is boiled for 4 hours and get a water-alcohol extract of Echinacea purpurea. To prepare a water-alcohol extract from the powder of reindeer antlers, 0.75 kg of finely chopped antlers is poured with a water-alcohol liquid with a strength of 48% vol. in the amount of 8.5 l, insist for 6 days with occasional stirring for 50 minutes 2 times a day, which is further concentrated on a rotary evaporator with the distillation of the extractant, which is added at the following ratio of ingredients, wt. %: water-glycerin extract from blueberries - 35.5-45.5, water-alcohol extract from the herb Echinacea purpurea - 12.5-13.5, water-alcohol extract from the powder of reindeer antlers - 3.5-4 ,5, drinking water - the rest.

Preparation of the drink is carried out in two stages: preparation of the blend composition; preparing a drink.

The preparation of the blending composition provides for the dissolution of the calculated amount of the flavoring component in the water used, the use of a water-glycerin extract from blueberries, an aqueous-alcoholic extract from the herb of Echinacea purpurea, an aqueous-alcoholic extract from the powder of reindeer antlers, followed by a vacuum process. The drink is prepared by adding a blending solution to a given volume of drinking water.

Example 1 (best option)

Soft drink is prepared according to the technology described above using the following ratio of ingredients, wt. %: water-glycerin extract from blueberries - 40.5, water-alcohol extract from Echinacea purpurea herb - 13.0, water-alcohol extract from reindeer antler powder - 4.0, drinking water - the rest.

The resulting non-alcoholic drink is transparent, having a dark purple color with a red tint, a sweet and sour taste characteristic of blueberries, and an aroma with an easily perceptible tone of echinacea purpurea. The drink is enriched with a wide range of biologically active substances, with a high content of biologically active substances with directed consumer and organoleptic indicators.

Example 2

Soft drink is prepared according to the technology described above using the following ratio of ingredients, wt. %: water-glycerin extract from blueberries - 35.5, water-alcohol extract from Echinacea purpurea herb - 12.5, water-alcohol extract from reindeer antler powder - 3.5, drinking water - the rest.

The resulting non-alcoholic drink is transparent, having a dark purple color with a red tint, a sweet and sour taste characteristic of blueberries, and an aroma with a perceptible tone of echinacea purpurea. The drink is enriched with a wide range of biologically active substances, has a moderate content of biologically active substances, with directed consumer and organoleptic indicators. The preparation of a drink with a quantitative deviation of the ingredients less than the lower limit leads to a drink with an unpleasant taste and a low tonic effect.

Example 3

Soft drink is prepared according to the technology described above using the following ratio of ingredients, wt. %: water-glycerin extract from blueberries - 45.5, water-alcohol extract from Echinacea purpurea herb - 13.5, water-alcohol extract from reindeer antler powder - 4.5, drinking water - the rest.

Preparation of a functional drink with a quantitative deviation of the ingredients greater than the upper limit and below the lower limit in terms of organoleptic indicators, the drink cannot have a pleasant taste and aroma.

Thus, examples 1-3 confirm the found optimal prescription amounts of ingredients and their quantitative ratios for the composition of the proposed soft drink.

Using the totality of all the proposed ingredients makes it possible to achieve a technical result - to obtain a soft drink containing natural plant extracts with a high content of biologically active substances with directed organoleptic and preventive properties, reduced product production costs.
