Embodiment 1
[0044] Six beverage products were prepared. Each product contained a uniform amount of tea solids (0.3 wt.%). Different levels of SSPS were present in products 1-5 (see Table 1). The control product did not contain any SSPS. All products had a pH of 3.2.

Embodiment 2
[0053] Eleven products were prepared, each containing a uniform amount of tea solids (0.3 wt.%). A black leaf tea blend (Red Rose, Unilever Canada) was used as a source of tea solids. Infusions made from this tea mix are known to tend to form tea milk upon cooling. The tea mixture was extracted with water and buffered to pH 3.2 with addition of SSPS (where appropriate). Various levels of SSPS were present in products 6-15 (see Table 3).
