ABSTRACT:
A strawberry juice drink is described along with a method of producing the drink. The drink is made solely from strawberries without being blended with other fruit or fruit flavorings. A blend of strawberries having a Brix reading above 6.5° is pureed and filtered and/or centrifuged to remove seeds and large pulp solids. An enzyme is added to the pureed juice stock to reduce fiber length. Water is added to form a mixture of between 25% and 45% water and between 55% and 75% pureed juice stock by volume. A hydrocolloid gum, ascorbic acid and a low calorie sweetener, preferably sucralose, are added to the mixture. The resulting juice brink is nutritious, refreshing and has less than half the calories of orange juice.
