Summary: | The interest for developing functional beverages by using fruits is increasing every day. This article presents an improved technology for the production of fruit beverages that does not use primary deep heat treatment of raw materials. The obtained beverages were analyzed regarding several physical indicators, content in compounds that possess antioxidant properties and a sensorial assessment. Beverages obtained from chokeberry, hawthorn and rose hip, had the highest levels of biologically active substances and strawberries, blackberries, black currant and cherry, the highest overall rating for the sensorial analysis. All the developed beverages have great market potential due to their content in bioactive compounds and their appeal to consumers. |
