Sea-buckthorn instant tea and preparation thereof

Abstract

The invention provides a method for preparing sea buckthorn instant tea, the method includes the following steps: extracting and concentrating the collected sea backthern leaves by extracting agent to obtain the concentrated extracting solution; spray drying the concentrated extracting solution to obtain powder shaped water-soluble sea backthern leaf extract; preparing the sea backthern leaf extract with accessories in a certain ratio to for producing the sea buckthorn instant tea with needed flavor and taste. The invention also provides a sea buckthorn instant tea prepared by the upper method, containing the water-soluble sea backthern leaves extract extracted from sea backthern leaves, the flavone content of the instant tea is 0.2-10 mg / bag, preferably 1-5mg / bag. The merits of the invention reside in that: picking time of the material sea backthern leaves or tender and fresh degree are not requested; the process is industrial producing process, the output of the products is large, the product is safe and health; at the same time because the matter added into the sea backthern teabag is 100% water-soluble sea backthern leaves extract, once the tea bag is soaked, all the effective active ingredients in the sea backthern tea are dissolved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a seabuckthorn instant tea and a preparation method thereof, in particular to a seabuckthorn instant tea using dried seabuckthorn leaf extract as a raw material and a preparation method thereof, belonging to the technical field of food engineering. Background technique [0002] Seabuckthorn plants belong to the family Elueagnaceae, and are deciduous erect shrubs or small trees with thorns. It is mainly distributed in the vast area of ​​Eurasia. Its geographical distribution ranges from the southwestern coast of England in the west to Hebei Province in China in the east, from the northeast of Norway in the north to Turkey in southwest Asia in the south. [0003] Because seabuckthorn plants have excellent drought, barren, and cold characteristics, and at the same time can make the land where they grow fertile, they have been used in China since the 1980s as a plant that is excellent in water and soil conservation and prevents des...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0007] 1) In order to ensure the quality of seabuckthorn tea, it is generally required that the seabuckthorn leaves picked are young leaves of a specific month of the year or at least there is a certain requirement for the freshness of seabuckthorn leaves when harvested, which is difficult to achieve in actual production practice. In fact, the quality of the harvested seabuckthorn leaves is quite different, which makes the quality of the prepared seabuckthorn tea difficult to unify;

[0008] 2) According to the processing of seabuckthorn leaves carried out by the traditional tea making method, the process is complicated and the processing capacity is small, so it is difficult to realize the requirements of industrial scale production and standardization;

Due to time and other reasons, it is sometimes difficult for drinkers to brew seabuckthorn tea for a long time, which also affects the performance of seabuckthorn tea on drinkers.
