[0087] Experimental example 1

[0088] Maximum tolerance experiment of mice:

[0089] Test animals: 40 ICR mice, purchased from Ningxia Medical University Experimental Animal Center, license number: SCXK (Ning) 2020-0001, standard weight (18-22g), half male and half female.

[0090] Dose: 12h fasting before administration, maximum solubility and maximum administration volume (0.4mL / 10g) were used for gavage.

[0091] Adaptive feeding for 3 days, the mice were divided into blank male group, blank female group, drug male group and drug female group, 10 in each group, the drug extract was the traditional Chinese medicine extract (A liquid) prepared in example 1, the drug group was given the maximum solubility (the maximum administration concentration was determined by the smooth passage of 12 mouse gavage needle) and the maximum administration volume (0.4mL / 10g) of the test substance, the maximum solubility was 1.192g / mL, the food intake, hair, body weight and activity of the mice were normal, and no death was observed, so the oral acute toxicity dose of the test substance to the mice was greater than a certain value (g / kg·BW).

[0092] Table 1 Maximum tolerance experiment of traditional Chinese medicine extract prepared in example 1 n=10)

[0093]

[0094] As shown in Table 1 and after 14 days of observation, the mice's hair, body weight, food and water intake, excretion and activity were all normal. No mice died at this maximum dose (47.68 g / kg), indicating that the maximum tolerated dose of the Chinese herbal extract prepared in Example 1 was >47.68 g / kg·BW.

[0095] Experiment Example 2

[0096] Animals: 40 male ICR mice, weighing 20±2g, were used.

[0097] Grouping and Administration: Mice were divided into four experimental groups of 10 each. After acclimatization for 3-5 days, they were randomly assigned to the four groups using a randomized block design. The maximum solubility was 1.192 g / mL, and the administration volume was 0.2 mL / 10 g. A high-dose concentration was set at 80% of the maximum solubility of the herbal extract in mice from Experiment 1. The high-dose concentration = 1.192 g / mL × 80% × 0.2 mL / 10 g = 19.072 g / kg. Half of the high-dose concentration was set as the medium-dose concentration, half of the medium-dose concentration as the low-dose concentration, and half and a quarter of the high-dose concentration as low-medium-low-dose groups. ① Blank group (distilled water / d) ② Low dose (ig, 4.768 g / kg, qd) ③ Medium dose (ig, 9.536 g / kg, qd) ④ High dose (ig, 19.072 g / kg, qd). Administration method: Gavage. The control group was given distilled water by gavage, while the treatment group was given traditional Chinese medicine extract.

[0098] 1. Mouse Weighted Swimming Experiment: Adaptation Training Method: For the first three days of the formal experiment, mice underwent unweighted swimming training daily, with training time increasing progressively. The water depth was approximately 10 cm deeper than the sum of the mouse's body length and tail length. The water temperature was 25±2℃. After each group of mice swam, the water was changed to clean fresh water before the next group swam to prevent warning substances left in the water by the previous group from interfering with the next group. Mouse weight was measured weekly. Day 1: Adaptation swimming training 20 minutes; Day 2: Start swimming 40 minutes; Day 3: Start swimming 60 minutes; Day 4: Swim with 7% lead weight until exhaustion.

[0099] Experimental results: such as Figure 1 As shown in the figure. After administering different doses of the traditional Chinese medicine extract, a weight-bearing swimming experiment was conducted on mice. The high-dose group of the test substance significantly prolonged the swimming time of mice under weight-bearing exhaustion (P<0.05).

[0100] 2. Mouse Rotary Bar Experiment: Training: Before the test, mice were continuously administered the drug via gavage for 30 days to acclimatize them to the test environment for 3 days. During this period, the mice were allowed to enter the test device and undergo some trials to familiarize themselves with the rotating bar, reducing errors caused by excessive maladaptation to the experimental environment. During the acclimatization period, the rotation speed of the bar was generally slower than during the test, with a training time of 10 minutes, once a day, to help the mice gradually adapt to the movement of the bar.

[0101] Formal test: The formal test was conducted 1 hour after the last gavage administration. The rotation speed was adjusted to 30 r / min. In the formal test, the time it took for the mouse to fall off the rotundus was recorded. The measurement was taken 3 times, and the average value was taken as the rotundus time for that mouse.

[0102] Experimental results: such as Figure 2 As shown in the figure. After administration of different doses of traditional Chinese medicine extract, compared with the control group, each dose group of the test substance significantly increased the dwell time of mice on the rotarod fatigue tester (P<0.05).

[0103] 3. Mouse forelimb grip strength test: Assemble and connect the KW-ZL-1 mouse grip strength meter. Adjust the angle so that the grip plate is placed horizontally. Lift the mouse's tail so that the mouse's forelimbs grasp the grip plate. Gently pull the mouse backward with even force parallel to the grip plate until the mouse releases the grip plate. The instrument will automatically read the maximum value at this point. Measure 3 times and take the average value as the mouse's forelimb grip strength value. The measurement time for the same mouse should be at least 5 minutes apart.

[0104] Experimental results: such as Figure 3 As shown in the figure. After administration of different doses of traditional Chinese medicine extract, compared with the control group, the high dose group of the test substance significantly increased the forelimb grip strength of mice (P<0.05).

[0110] 1. Clarifier investigation: The levels of chitosan clarification factors are shown in Table 2.

[0111] Table 2 Levels of chitosan clarification factors

[0112]

[0113] Preparation of clarifier: Take an appropriate amount of chitosan powder, place the beaker on a magnetic stirrer, add deionized water, and stir at low speed to dissolve. After dissolution, swell for 24 h for standby use.

[0114] 1.1 Concentration of chitosan

[0115] Take 50 mL of the traditional Chinese medicine extract prepared in Example 1 (A liquid) in 5 portions, and add 5 mg / mL, 10 mg / mL, 15 mg / mL, 20 mg / mL, and 25 mg / mL chitosan solution, respectively. The amount of chitosan solution added is 3% of the volume of the extract. The standing temperature is 25°C, and the standing time is 4 h. Calculate the clarification rate and the retention rate of quercetin.

[0116] The experimental results are shown in Table 1. Figures 8-9 The optimal concentration of chitosan added to the traditional Chinese medicine extract for clarification is 10 mg / mL.

[0117] 1.2 Amount of chitosan

[0118] Take 50 mL of the traditional Chinese medicine extract prepared in Example 1 (A liquid) in 5 portions, and add 10 mg / mL chitosan solution. The amount of chitosan solution added is 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, and 5% of the volume of the A liquid, respectively. The standing time is 4 h, and the standing temperature is 25°C. Calculate the clarification rate and the retention rate of quercetin.

[0119] The experimental results are shown in Table 2. Figures 10-11 The optimal amount of chitosan added to the A liquid is 3% of the volume of the A liquid.

[0120] 1.3 Standing time for clarification

[0121] Take 50 mL of the traditional Chinese medicine extract prepared in Example 1 (A liquid) in 6 portions, and add 10 mg / mL chitosan solution. The amount of chitosan solution added is 3% of the volume of the extract. The standing time is 1 h, 2 h, 3 h, 4 h, 5 h, and 6 h, and the standing temperature is 25°C. Calculate the clarification rate and the retention rate of quercetin.

[0122] The experimental results are shown in Table 3. Figures 12-13 When the standing time is 1 h, the clarification rate and the retention rate of quercetin of the beverage are higher, and the comprehensive score is the highest compared to other levels. Therefore, the standing time of 1 h is selected as the optimal standing time.

[0123] 1.4 Standing temperature for clarification

[0124] Take 50 mL of the traditional Chinese medicine extract prepared in Example 1 (A liquid) in 6 portions, and add 10 mg / mL chitosan solution. The amount of chitosan solution added is 3% of the volume of the extract. The standing time is 1 h, and the standing temperature is 25°C, 35°C, 45°C, 55°C, and 65°C. Calculate the clarification rate and the retention rate of quercetin.

[0125] The experimental results are shown in Table 4. Figures 14-15 The optimal temperature for clarification is 25°C.

[0126] 2Clarification process orthogonal experiment

[0127] According to the results of single factor experiment, L9(3 3 )factor level table was constructed. With the clarification rate of traditional Chinese medicine extract (A liquid) prepared in Example 1 and the retention rate of quercetin as evaluation indexes, the clarification process was optimized, and the best clarification process of traditional Chinese medicine extract (A liquid) prepared in Example 1 was finally obtained. The factor level setting is shown in Table 3.

[0128] Table 3 Factor level table of orthogonal experiment design L9(3 3 )

[0129]

[0130]

[0131] The orthogonal experiment design and results are shown in Table 4.

[0132] Table 4 Orthogonal experiment design and results L9(3 3 )

[0133]

[0134] The range analysis results of orthogonal experiment results are shown in Table 5.

[0135] Table 5 Range analysis of orthogonal experiment results

[0136]

[0137] From the range analysis, it can be seen that the three factors have different effects on the preparation process, and the influence degree from large to small is A (chitosan concentration) > C (standing time) > B (chitosan addition amount). When A = 3, the comprehensive score is the largest (8.81), when B = 3, the comprehensive score is the largest (7.57). When C = 1, the comprehensive score is the largest (7.89), therefore, the best A3B3C1 of orthogonal experiment is obtained. Therefore, the optimal combination obtained by analyzing the results of orthogonal experiment is: the concentration of water-soluble chitosan is 10 mg / mL, the chitosan addition amount is 3.5%, and the standing time is 40 min.

[0138] The verification results of optimization experiment are shown in Table 6.

[0139] Table 6 Verification of orthogonal experiment optimization

[0140]

[0141]

[0142] The optimal clarification process optimized according to the orthogonal test was repeated 3 times, and the RSD calculated from the comprehensive score was 0.60%, proving that the method was reasonable and feasible. Through comparison with the 8th group of the optimal group of the orthogonal table, the comprehensive score was greater than the result obtained by the orthogonal optimization experiment, so the final beverage clarification process parameters were determined as follows: chitosan concentration 10 mg / mL, addition amount 3%, standing time 50 min, and standing temperature 25°C.

[0143] 3. Formula optimization research

[0144] Analysis of the properties of the medicinal ingredients in the composition: Lotus seed: calming the heart and soothing the nerves, nourishing the heart and spleen, sweet and slightly bitter, may have a slight bitter taste, requiring a sweetener or bitter taste inhibitor. Medlar: tonifying liver and kidney, benefiting essence and eyesight, with natural sweetness and sourness. Cornus officinalis: tonifying liver and kidney, astringing essence and consolidating qi, with sour and astringent taste, may need to balance the sour and sweet. Poria cocos: tonifying the spleen and removing dampness, mild in taste. Euryale ferox: tonifying the spleen and kidney, slightly bitter. Dioscorea: tonifying the spleen and nourishing the stomach, sweet and mild, as a basic ingredient, has little effect on the overall taste. According to the above theoretical analysis and actual tasting of the extract, the flavoring factor levels were determined. Single factor was used for flavoring factor screening, response surface experiment design was used for optimization, and sensory evaluation was used as the evaluation method. The flavoring factor level design table is shown in Table 7.

[0145] Table 7 Flavoring single factor level design

[0146]

[0147] The sensory evaluation criteria are shown in Table 8.

[0148] Table 8 Sensory evaluation criteria

[0149]

[0150]

[0151] 3.1 Sweetener single factor experiment

[0152] The comparison of common low-intensity sweeteners is shown in Table 9. Since erythritol has low heat, high solubility, non-cariogenicity, and high stability, when used in beverages, it can increase the sweetness level and improve the drinking experience, so erythritol is selected as the basic sweetener.

[0153] Table 9 Comparison of low-intensity sweeteners

[0154]

[0155] Take the C liquid prepared in Example 1 100 mL, 5 parts, the amount of erythritol added is 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, 5% of the volume of C liquid, the amount of mogroside added is 0.03% of the volume of C liquid, the amount of citric acid added is 0.1% of the volume of C liquid, the amount of black tea powder added is 0.2% of the volume of C liquid, the amount of β-cyclodextrin added is 0.05% of the volume of C liquid, and the amount of mint powder added is 0.02% of the volume of C liquid. Calculate the sensory evaluation score of the beverage.

[0156] The experimental results are shown in Table 9. Figure 16 When the amount of erythritol added is 5%, the highest comprehensive score is 7.0, which is higher than the scores of other levels, and the comprehensive acceptance is better.

[0157] The comparison of common high-intensity sweeteners is shown in Table 10. Due to the poor sweetness of erythritol, in order to enrich the sweet taste, it is considered to add pure natural extract mogroside to enhance the sweet taste. Erythritol will produce endothermic reaction when dissolved, bringing obvious cooling sensation. Combined with mogroside, it can provide better refreshing taste for the beverage, especially suitable for refreshing drinks and sports drinks. The combination of erythritol and mogroside has natural, rich and no bitter taste, which is suitable for beverages emphasizing health attributes and natural sources.

[0158] Table 10 Comparison of high-intensity sweeteners

[0159]

[0160]

[0161] Take the C liquid prepared in Example 1 100 mL, 5 parts, the amount of erythritol added is 5% of the volume of C liquid, the amount of mogroside added is 0.01%, 0.02%, 0.03%, 0.04%, 0.05% of the volume of C liquid, the amount of citric acid added is 0.1% of the volume of C liquid, the amount of black tea powder added is 0.2% of the volume of C liquid, the amount of β-cyclodextrin added is 0.05% of the volume of C liquid, and the amount of mint powder added is 0.02% of the volume of C liquid. Calculate the sensory evaluation score of the beverage.

[0162] The experimental results are shown in Table 9. Figure 17 When the amount of mogroside added is 0.03%, the highest comprehensive score is 7.45, which is better in acceptance and more suitable in sweetness.

[0163] 3.2 Acid taste regulator single factor experiment

[0164] The common acidulant comparison is shown in Table 11. Citric acid has obvious advantages in liquid beverages due to its fresh and natural sour taste, excellent buffering capacity, multifunctional characteristics, and high consumer acceptance. Compared with other acid taste regulators, it has a wider range of applications, especially for fruit juice and functional beverages, and is the preferred choice for acidity adjustment. Therefore, citric acid is selected as the acid taste regulator in beverages.

[0165] Table 11 Comparison of acidulants

[0166]

[0167] Take the C liquid prepared in Example 1 100 mL, 5 parts, add erythritol in an amount of 5% of the volume of C liquid, add mogroside in an amount of 0.03% of the volume of C liquid, add citric acid in an amount of 0%, 0.05%, 0.1%, 0.15%, 0.2% of the volume of C liquid, add black tea powder in an amount of 0.2% of the volume of C liquid, add β-cyclodextrin in an amount of 0.05% of the volume of C liquid, and add mint powder in an amount of 0.02% of the volume of C liquid. Calculate the beverage sensory evaluation score.

[0168] The experimental results are as shown in Table 13. Figure 18 When the amount of citric acid added is 0%, the comprehensive score is 7.74, which is higher than the scores of other levels, the overall score is good, and the popularity is high.

[0169] 3.3 Single factor experiment of flavor regulator

[0170] The common tea powder characteristics comparison is shown in Table 12. Black tea powder has unique advantages as a flavor regulator in anti-fatigue beverages, such as a natural and mellow flavor, moderate astringency, and color close to that of the product. Its compatibility and consumer acceptance make it an ideal choice for flavoring anti-fatigue beverages.

[0171] Table 12 Comparison of flavor regulators

[0172]

[0173] Take the C liquid prepared in Example 1 100 mL, 5 parts, add erythritol in an amount of 5% of the volume of C liquid, add mogroside in an amount of 0.03% of the volume of C liquid, add citric acid in an amount of 0.1% of the volume of C liquid, add black tea powder in an amount of 0%, 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.3%, 0.5% of the volume of C liquid, add β-cyclodextrin in an amount of 0.05% of the volume of C liquid, and add mint powder in an amount of 0.02% of the volume of C liquid. Calculate the beverage sensory evaluation score.

[0174] The experimental results are as shown in Table 13. Figure 19As shown. To enhance the flavor of the product, black tea powder was added. When the amount of black tea powder added was 0.1%, the overall score was 7.48 points, which was higher than other scores, indicating a better taste and a higher overall evaluation.

[0175] 3.4 Single-factor experiment on masking agents

[0176] Table 13 shows a comparison of common flavor masking agents in beverages. β-Cyclodextrin, used as a flavor masking agent in beverages, utilizes its inclusion mechanism to more precisely eliminate off-flavors without interfering with the main flavor of the beverage. It is also stable under high temperature and acidic conditions, making it suitable for various beverage types. Compared to other flavor masking agents such as sugars and flavorings, β-Cyclodextrin stands out due to its high efficiency, stability, and natural properties, making it an ideal choice for natural beverages.

[0177] Table 13 Comparison of masking agents

[0178]

[0179] Take 100 mL of liquid C prepared in Example 1, divide it into 5 portions, and add 5% erythritol, 0.03% mogroside, 0.1% citric acid, 0.2% black tea powder, 0%, 0.025%, 0.05%, 0.075%, and 0.1% β-cyclodextrin, and 0.02% peppermint powder, respectively. Calculate the sensory evaluation score of the beverage.

[0180] Experimental results: such as Figure 20 As shown, the overall score was better when the β-cyclodextrin addition was 0.05%, with a comprehensive score of 7.02, which was higher than other levels and indicated high popularity.

[0181] 3.5 Single-factor experiment on cooling regulators

[0182] To enhance the refreshing and invigorating effect and taste of beverages, cooling agents are added. A comparison of common cooling agents is shown in Table 14. Firstly, peppermint powder's advantages in refreshing beverages lie in its naturally fresh, mild, and long-lasting cooling sensation, unique herbal aroma layers, good taste-masking ability, and ease of processing. Secondly, compared to menthol, borneol, or peppermint essential oil, peppermint powder offers more comprehensive functionality and a wider range of applications. It is a cost-effective and safe cooling agent, thus making it the preferred choice for beverage cooling agents.

[0183] Table 14 Comparison of Cooling Regulators

[0184]

[0185] Take 100 mL of C liquid prepared in Example 1, 5 parts, the amount of erythritol added is 5% of the volume of C liquid, the amount of mogroside added is 0.03% of the volume of C liquid, the amount of citric acid added is 0.1% of the volume of C liquid, the amount of black tea powder added is 0.2% of the volume of C liquid, the amount of β-cyclodextrin added is 0.05% of the volume of C liquid, and the amount of peppermint powder added is 0%, 0.01%, 0.02%, 0.03%, 0.05% of the volume of C liquid. Calculate the sensory evaluation score of the beverage.

[0186] The experimental results are shown in Table 6. Figure 21 To increase the cooling sensation of the beverage, peppermint powder is added to the beverage. When the amount of peppermint powder added is 0.03%, the taste is better, and the overall score is 7.54, which is higher than the scores of other levels, and the overall evaluation is higher.

[0187] According to the single-factor sensory score, the preliminary addition amount of the beverage auxiliary is: erythritol addition amount is 5%, mogroside addition amount is 0.03%, citric acid addition amount is 0%, black tea powder addition amount is 0.1%, β-cyclodextrin addition amount is 0.03%, and peppermint powder addition amount is 0.03%.

[0188] 3.6 Response surface optimization formula experiment

[0189] (1) The weighting calculation steps of CRITIC (objective weighting method) are as follows:

[0190] ① Data standardization

[0191] The original data is standardized, and the calculation formula is as follows:

[0192] Where X ij is the original value of the ith experiment at the jth index, μ j and σ j are the mean and standard deviation of the jth index, respectively.

[0193] ② Calculate the standard deviation

[0194] The standard deviation of each index after standardization is 1, i.e. σ j = 1

[0195] ③ Calculate the correlation matrix of the index

[0196] After standardizing the data, the correlation between each pair of indexes is calculated to obtain the correlation matrix. The element R jk in the correlation matrix represents the correlation coefficient of indexes j and k. The calculation results of the correlation matrix are shown in Table 15.

[0197] Table 15 Correlation matrix calculation

[0198]

[0199] IV. Calculate the correlation

[0200] Sum the correlation coefficients for each indicator to obtain the correlation sum S j :

[0201]

[0202] Where m is the number of indicators, the following results are calculated:

[0203] Correlation sum S for color 色泽 = 1.6269

[0204] Correlation sum S for taste 味道 = 3.4436

[0205] Correlation sum S for mouthfeel 口感 = 3.2320

[0206] Correlation sum S for aftertaste 余味 = 3.1563

[0207] Correlation sum S for overall acceptance 综合接受度 = 3.3238

[0208] V. Calculate the contrast intensity

[0209] Calculate the contrast intensity C for each indicator according to the CRITIC method j , with the formula:

[0210] C j = σ j *(1-S j )

[0211] Substitute the results from steps 3 and 4 into the calculation to obtain:

[0212] Contrast intensity C for color 色泽 = 1*(1-1.6269) = -0.6269

[0213] Contrast intensity C for taste 味道 = 1*(1-3.4436) = -2.4436

[0214] Contrast intensity C for mouthfeel 口感 = 1*(1-3.2320) = -2.2320

[0215] Contrast intensity C for aftertaste 余味 = 1*(1-3.1563) = -2.1563

[0216] Contrast intensity C for overall acceptance 综合接受度 = 1*(1-3.3238) = -2.3238= 1 * (1 - 3.3238) = -2.3238

[0217] (6) Calculate the CRITIC weight

[0218] Finally, the contrast intensity is normalized to obtain the CRITIC weight W of each index j :

[0219]

[0220] The sum of the contrast intensity is:

[0221]

[0222] The index weight results are shown in Table 16.

[0223] Table 16: Sensory evaluation index weighting by CRITIC method

[0224]

[0225] The comprehensive score = color normalized data x 0.0641 + taste normalized data x 0.2498 + mouthfeel normalized data x 0.2282 + aftertaste normalized data x 0.2204 + comprehensive acceptance normalized data x 0.2375

[0226] The results of the sensory evaluation comprehensive score of the response surface experiment design are shown in Table 17.

[0227] Table 17: Response surface experiment design comprehensive score table

[0228]

[0229]

[0230] (2) Formulation response surface experiment

[0231] Based on the single factor experiment, erythritol addition amount, citric acid addition amount, black tea powder addition amount, and mint powder addition amount were selected as influencing factors, and the comprehensive score of sensory evaluation was used as the response value. A central composite experiment of response surface design with 4 factors and 3 levels was constructed, and regression analysis was performed on the response value to investigate the interaction between the influencing factors and optimize the best formula of the flavoring agent. The factor level table design is shown in Table 18.

[0232] Table 18: Response surface factor level design table

[0233]

[0234]

[0235] The response surface experiment results are shown in Table 19, and the variance analysis of the response surface experiment results is shown in Table 20.

[0236] Table 19 Response surface experiment design and results

[0237]

[0238]

[0239] Table 20 Variance analysis of the response surface experiment results with comprehensive score as the evaluation index

[0240]

[0241]

[0242] Based on the four factor levels determined in the single factor experiment, Design-Expert 13.0 software was used for response surface experiment design and result statistics. According to the experimental results, quadratic multiple regression analysis was performed to obtain the regression equation: Y = 9.58 + 0.1579*A - 0.3221*B - 0.1283*C + 0.0653*D + 0.2247*AB + 0.3670*AC - 0.0594*AD - 0.0299*BC + 0.1843*BD + 0.0097*CD - 0.4146*A 2 - 0.4091*B 2 - 0.1521*C 2 - 0.2280*D 2 According to the variance analysis results of the regression equation coefficients, the absolute values of the regression equation first-order term coefficients from large to small are as follows: B > A > C > D. The greater the absolute value of the first-order term coefficient, the greater the influence on the response surface evaluation results. Therefore, the four influencing factors on the beverage sensory score from large to small are as follows: lemon acid addition amount (B) > erythritol addition amount (A) > black tea powder addition amount (C) > mint powder addition amount (D). The response surface graph and contour graph are shown in Figure 22 .

[0243] The response surface graph can intuitively show the relationship between different factors and their influence on the response value. When the slope of the response surface is steep, it means that in the parameter space, the response value is very sensitive to the change of the parameter, and even if the parameter changes slightly, the response value will also have a large fluctuation. When the contour lines are closer to the ellipse, it means that the interaction between different factors has a more significant influence on the response value. As shown in Table 19 and Figure 22 , the erythritol addition amount and the lemon acid addition amount have a significant influence on the comprehensive score, and the interaction between erythritol and black tea powder addition amount has a significant influence on the comprehensive score. The remaining factors also have a certain influence on the comprehensive score, but there is no significant influence.

[0244] (3) Verification test and determination of optimal formulation

[0245] The regression equation is derived according to the Optimization choices toolbox of the Design-Expert 13.0 software package, and the maximum value of the model result is obtained by solving the resulting equation set, i.e., the test combination with the highest beverage sensory score is: the erythritol addition amount is 4.800%, the citric acid addition amount is 0.014%, the black tea powder addition amount is 0.019%, and the mint powder addition amount is 0.030%. According to the above prediction results, experiments are verified, and the final additive is determined by comprehensively considering the single factor: the erythritol addition amount is 4.800%, the mogroside addition amount is 0.030%, the citric acid addition amount is 0.014%, the black tea powder addition amount is 0.019%, the β-cyclodextrin addition amount is 0.050%, and the mint powder addition amount is 0.030%.

[0246] The above only describes the preferred embodiments of the present application, and it should be noted that those skilled in the art can make several improvements and refinements without departing from the principles of the present application, and these improvements and refinements should also be considered within the protection scope of the present application.
