Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent the clouding of black tea in cooling, without deteriorating the taste and flavor, by adding one or more compounds selected from fructose, xylose, ethanol and propylene glycol to a hot-water extract of black tea. CONSTITUTION:Black tea is extracted with water at room temperature - about 95 deg.C, and the insoluble materials are removed from the extracted liquid e.g. by filtration, centrifugal separation, etc. after cooling. 100pts.wt. of the obtained tea extract is added with about 5-150pts.wt. of one or more compounds selected from fructose, xylose, ethanol and propylene glycol. The clouding substance produced by the cooling of an aqueous extract of tea or produced with time can be solubilized by this process, and the clouding of the extract can be prevented. Accordingly, the extract can be used suitably as a food or drink such as canned tea drink, health drink, etc. to which transparency is required.

Preventing the creaming down of the concentrated aqueous extract of black tea is an important issue. Many proposals have been made in the past to resolve this issue. For example, in order to suppress the elution of cream-down-causing substances, black tea is heated under various temperature conditions of about 60°C or lower, for example, 15 to 25°C (Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No.
No. 24099), 5°C to 58°C (Unexamined Japanese Patent Publication No. 53-5269)

Low-temperature black tea extracts produce less turbidity, but in other words, they contain less soluble matter than hot water extracts used for regular drinking, and therefore have a weaker color and flavor. It lacked the original pleasant flavor. In addition, conventional proposals for adding sucrose, corn syrup, or dextrin to black tea extracts require the addition of large amounts of these additives, which have a positive effect on the flavor of black tea and are also effective in preventing turbidity. It wasn't always enough.
