Abstract: A kiwifruit drink with pulp was developed with kiwifruit pulp as main material and maltitol,xylitol,acid and sweetener as adjuncts.The processing technology of kiwifruit pulp was optiimized by using single test,and the proportions of kiwifruit pulp and the adjuncts were optimized by using orthogonal test.Results showed that when the size of kiwifruit pulp is 1.5×1.0×1.0 cm3,the taste and appearance of the drink product are the best.The deastringency and crispness-keeping effects of 0.2‰ CaCl2 plus 0.2‰ Na2CO3 are the best for kiwifruit pulp.The optimal proportions of kiwifruit pulp and the adjuncts are as follows:kiwi fruit pulp 50%,maltitol plus xylito 5%;acesulfame-k 0.07‰ citric acid 0.20%,malic acid 0.15% and water 45%.The finished drink product has crisp and delicious taste with sourness and sweetness,and the flavor of fresh kiwifruit is obvious.
