[0008] Use a fine-bristled brush to gently remove the hairs and thorns on the surface of the Ganzi Pear Cactus Fruit; rinse repeatedly with running water; place in a ventilated place to dry the surface moisture;

[0009] After drying, peel the fruit and cut it into pieces, then put it into a tissue crusher for crushing and juicing, and filter it with a 200-mesh nylon mesh;

[0010] The temperature is maintained at 70-80° C. in a constant temperature water bath for 20-30 seconds and then rapidly cooled to below 40° C. to kill microorganisms and inactivate enzymes in the juice; then 3% by weight of citric acid or / and ascorbic acid is added to prevent the pear cactus fruit from oxidizing and changing color and to protect its color; and pear cactus juice is obtained.

[0011] (2) Acquisition of excipients;

[0012] Get resistant dextrin, sorbitol, oligofructose and black barley;

[0013] As a low-molecular-weight water-soluble dietary fiber, resistant dextrin replaces part of sugar or fat, reduces the overall calories of the beverage, and meets the current pursuit of low-sugar diet;

[0014] Sorbitol is a nutritional sweetener and an important raw material for the production of sugar-free candies and various anti-caries foods. It is suitable for patients with diabetes, obesity and children who demand sweetness without adding any burden to the body.

[0015] As an important functional food additive, oligofructose not only has excellent sweetness properties, but also has multiple physiological functions, such as regulating intestinal flora, lowering blood sugar, and improving serum lipids.

[0016] Black barley has the characteristics of low sugar, low fat, high fiber, high vitamins and high protein, which can meet people's requirements for nutrition and health. The following is the processing of black barley:

[0017] Soak black barley in purified water 3 to 5 times the weight of black barley at room temperature for 10 to 12 hours to remove the odor, soften the tissue, and take it out and drain it. Put it in an oven and bake it for 30 to 40 minutes. When it has a good aroma, take it out, cool it, crush it, and pass it through an 80-mesh sieve. Use hot water 10 times the weight of black barley to mix the coix seed powder into a thin slurry, heat it to boiling to kill the enzyme, and filter it to get black barley juice.

[0018] (3) Preparation of prickly pear cactus fruit beverage;

[0019] The mixture is prepared according to the mass percentage of 70% of prickly pear cactus, 8% of purified water, 6% of resistant dextrin, 6% of sorbitol, 5% of oligofructose and 5% of black barley juice, and then homogenized at 25MPa and 50°C; degassed for 10 minutes at 0.07MPa by a vacuum method; and sterilized at 121°C for 10 minutes after filling and capping to obtain a prickly pear cactus fruit beverage.

[0020] (4) Light inspection and packing;

[0021] The filled pear cactus fruit beverage was tested by ultraviolet spectrophotometer, and the pear cactus fruit beverage with absorbance between 0.4 and 0.6 was labeled, packed and stored.

[0022] The invention uses Ganzi pear cactus fruit as raw material, adds resistant dextrin, sorbitol and oligofructose, improves the sweetness of the beverage, and at the same time maintains the nutritional functional components of the pear cactus fruit itself and meets the requirements of a low-sugar diet.

[0023] In addition, the invention also adds black barley, utilizes black barley and Ganzi pear cactus fruit as raw materials to process into health beverage, through scientific processing, reasonable blending, completely removes the unpleasant odors peculiar to black barley and cactus, and prepares the black barley Ganzi pear cactus fruit beverage with unique flavor.
