Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of pine needle drinks, in particular to a pine needle drink and a preparation process. BACKGROUND

[0002] Pine trees are widely distributed in China, and pine needles are rich in nutrients. Pine needles are rich in nutrients and healthy ingredients for the human body. People have a term called "God's charm" for pine trees. It can create a natural barrier of a series of vast cloud seas between mountains and waters, and also decorate the natural scenery of green and environmentally friendly beauty. It can withstand severe cold and scorching heat, and is not afraid of the destruction of gales and storms.

[0003] The juice of pine needles is extracted, and the scientific means and artisan matching of the interaction of Pinus massoniana plants and various Chinese herbal medicines are matched to remove the bitter taste of pine needles and the decomposition and extraction of pine oil. The original juice extracted from the pine needles of Pinus massoniana is sent to the Kunming Institute of Botany in Yunnan for toxicological experiment detection and detection of other nutritional elements and functional elements. The results show that the pine needles of Pinus massoniana are rich in seventeen kinds of amino acids, and also contain calcium, phosphorus, iron, manganese, cobalt and other trace elements. Li Shizhen recorded in his book "Compendium of Materia Medica" that "pine and cypress are the longest of all trees", and that "it makes people not old, light body and qi, treats rheumatism, grows hair, protects five internal organs, maintains the center, does not hunger, and prolongs life". Pharmacological research has found that it has significant anti-genetic mutation, anti-DNA damage, prolongs the life of adult fruit flies, improves the activity of SOD in mice, and has a good effect of lowering blood lipids, and has good health, anti-aging and medicinal functions. In view of the unique nutritional effect and health function of the pine needles of Pinus massoniana for the human body, the original juice of the pine needles is diluted into a pine needle drink. The product sample is detected, tested, and evaluated for taste, and the nutritional indicators are recognized and praised by the evaluation experts.

[0004] At present, there are few pine needle related foods on the market, and the existing pine needle foods have the problems of astringent taste, inconvenience for carrying out and eating, etc. The existing preparation method of pine needle drinks also has many defects. For example, high-temperature treatment destroys the nutrients in pine needles to a great extent, especially the effective components of vitamins, and also causes the solution to discolor, resulting in an undesirable drinking effect. The cold extraction method is not easy to extract the effective components of pine needles, and is prone to mold, color change, taste change, poor taste, sour and astringent taste, pine oil taste and other defects. Therefore, it is of great significance to develop a pine needle drink that is rich in nutrients, has good taste, is convenient to carry and eat. SUMMARY

[0005] The present application aims to provide a pine needle drink and a preparation process to solve the problems of few types of pine needle related foods, single taste, inconvenience for carrying out and eating, etc. At the same time, the prepared drink can maximize the retention of the nutritional components of pine needles, and has good taste and health care function.

[0027] The pine needle can strengthen five zang organs, the honey can improve immunity, and the brown sugar can warm the body and tonify deficiency, and the three components can play a tonifying effect from different angles, and the sweet and moist honey and brown sugar can relieve the dryness of the pine needle and ginger;

[0028] Gancao can tonify the spleen and replenish qi, and can harmonize various drugs, which can not only enhance the tonifying effect of the honey and brown sugar, but also can moderate the warm and hot nature of the ginger and star anise, avoid the damage of the dryness to the body fluid, and reduce the possible bitter and cold stimulation of the ginkgo leaves (the toxic components are removed after being treated by a solvent extraction method);

[0029] The pine needle can astringe the lung, the honey can moisten the lung and relieve cough, and the ginger can warm the lung and dispel cold, and the three components can form a combination of warming the lung, moistening the lung and astringing the lung, and can take into account dispelling cold and moistening dryness.

[0030] The ginger can stop vomiting, the honey can promote digestion, and the three nai can move qi and relieve pain, and the mild seasoning of the brown sugar can improve the function of the spleen and stomach, relieve abdominal distension, and reduce vomiting and food intake, and can be combined with the Gancao to tonify the spleen and replenish qi to strengthen the conditioning of the spleen and stomach.

[0031] The present application has the following beneficial effects:

[0032] The overall compatibility follows the idea of "mainly warming and dredging, considering tonifying and harmonizing", echoing the records in Compendium of Materia Medica that pine needle "prolongs life and relieves hunger" and star anise "warming yang and regulating qi", and meanwhile, the "harmonizing" effect of licorice and honey makes the properties of the components complementary, retaining the core effects of dispelling cold, promoting blood circulation and tonifying, and reducing the partiality of single herb.
