Abstract:

A compound solid beverage was developed by embedding formulated blueberry-carrot juice using β-cyclodextrin. The formulation and the embedding conditions were optimized. Results showed that the optimal formula of the beverage consisted of (m/V) a mixture of blueberry and carrot juices (1:1, V/V) 12%, sugar 11%, citric acid 0.20%, and pectin 0.15%, and the optimal embedding conditions were: with a β-cyclodextrin amount of 3.2% embedding for 6 h at 30 ℃.
