[0128] 2. The preparation method of the cocoa source material of the present invention
[0129] In another aspect, the invention relates to a process for the preparation of the cocoa-derived material of the invention.
[0130] In a specific embodiment there is provided a method of preparing cocoa-derived material in syrup form. The method includes the following steps:
[0131] a) mixing soluble cocoa powder with a cocoa extract as described herein, the cocoa extract comprising more than 25% by weight polyphenols based on the extract, preferably 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60 or 65 % by weight polyphenols,
[0132] b) optionally admixing one or more additional ingredients to the mixture of step a),
[0133] c) dissolving the mixture of step a) or b) in water,
[0134] d) adjusting the pH of the suspension obtained in step c) to a pH value below 5, preferably below 4, most preferably below 3.5,
[0135] e) optionally homogenizing said mixture, preferably at a pressure of at...
Embodiment 1
[0172] Example 1: Syrup and Beverage
[0173] Table 1 illustrates syrups containing soluble cocoa powder and cocoa extracts of the present invention having enhanced polyphenol levels. The pH of the syrup was brought to 3.3 by the addition of phosphoric acid.
[0174] A drink called Coca-Cola is made using this syrup by mixing: 85% by weight of carbonated water and 15% by weight of said syrup. The beverage is prepared through the following method steps:
[0175] - Dissolve the dry mix of the ingredients of the syrup in water and bring the pH to 3.3
[0176] - Homogenization at 125 bar, pasteurization within minutes at 85°C via heat exchanger or in tanks, direct cooling to 20°C, aseptic filling into bags in containers or tank systems.
[0177] -Aseptically connect the container to the carbonated water unit to make Coca-Cola.

Embodiment 2
[0183] Example 2: Syrup and Beverage
[0184] Table 2 illustrates syrups containing soluble cocoa powder and cocoa extracts of the present invention having increased polyphenol levels.
[0185] A beverage is prepared using this syrup by mixing: 85% by weight of carbonated water and 15% by weight of said syrup. The beverage was prepared using the method described in Example 1. The resulting beverage (see Table 2) was stable and had a good taste.
