Abstract: This research takes dandelion, pineapple as the primary materials with citric acid, honey, and so on as supplementary materials, and makes the natural drink with unique flavor and nutritional value in light of scientific processing. The research deals with processing, prescription and the technical key of dandelion, pineapple compound healthy care drink. Through the orthogo- nal experiment and the variance analysis, the test determines the optimum formulation of the prescription, i.e. A3D4C4E2B2, that is dandelion and pineapple compound juice 45ml, honey 2ml, potassium citrate 0.15g, sucrose 0.3g, water 52.55ml. In a small -scale production experiment, it was concluded that the optimum stabilizer combination is 0.02% of CMC-Na.
