Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of winemaking, in particular to a production process of coconut-flavored liquor. Background Art

[0002] Coconut is the fruit of the coconut tree. It is composed of a fibrous shell on the outside, which provides coconut skin fiber and a large nut with edible thick flesh. When the fruit is fresh, there is a clear liquid called coconut milk. Coconut milk and coconut meat contain a lot of protein, fructose, glucose, sucrose, fat, vitamin B1, vitamin E, vitamin C, potassium, calcium, magnesium, etc. Coconut meat is white like jade, fragrant and crisp; coconut milk is cool and sweet. Coconut meat and coconut milk are delicious fruits suitable for all ages. Coconut is sweet and flat in nature and enters the stomach, spleen and large intestine meridians; the fruit pulp has the effects of replenishing deficiency and strengthening, replenishing qi and dispelling wind, eliminating malnutrition and killing insects. Long-term consumption can make people's face moisturized, benefit people's strength and tolerance to hunger, and treat children's tapeworm and ginger worm disease; coconut water has the effects of nourishing, clearing away heat and quenching thirst, and is mainly used to treat thirst caused by summer heat and lack of body fluid; fresh coconut juice is "clear as water and sweet as honey". It is cool, sweet and delicious after drinking. It has a unique flavor and high nutritional value. It is the best drink for relieving summer heat. Coconut has high nutritional value. Chinese medicine practitioners believe that coconut meat is sweet and neutral in nature, and has the effects of nourishing the spleen and stomach, killing insects and eliminating malnutrition; coconut juice is sweet and warm in nature, and has the functions of promoting body fluid and promoting diuresis. Modern medical research shows that coconut meat contains protein and carbohydrates; coconut oil contains sugar, vitamin B1, vitamin B2, vitamin C, etc.; coconut juice contains more nutrients, such as fructose, glucose, sucrose, protein, fat, vitamin B, vitamin C, and trace elements and minerals such as calcium, phosphorus, and iron. It can be seen that coconut is an excellent product for both medicine and food.

[0003] Baijiu is a distilled liquor made from grains as the main raw materials, with Daqu, Xiaoqu, Fuqu, enzyme preparations and yeast as saccharification and fermentation agents, and is made through cooking, saccharification, fermentation, distillation, aging and blending. At present, in order to increase the taste of Baijiu when drinking, coconut is combined with Baijiu, and the aroma of Baijiu is mixed with a strong coconut aroma;

[0004] However, the production process of existing coconut-flavor liquor still has the following technical problems:

[0005] Current coconut-flavored liquors are often made by mixing finished coconut juice directly with the liquor, but the freshness of the coconut juice cannot be guaranteed, and the coconut flavor in the liquor is not strong enough, and will become weaker and weaker as time goes by. In addition, the current processing and production methods of coconut-flavored liquors are too industrialized and costly.

[0006] For this reason, a kind of coconut flavor type liquor production process is now proposed to solve the above-mentioned problem of raising. Summary of the invention

[0007] The object of the present invention is to provide a production process of coconut-flavored liquor to solve the problems raised in the above-mentioned background technology.

[0008] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a coconut-flavor liquor production process, the specific preparation process of the coconut-flavor liquor production process is as follows:

[0009] Step 1: Choose local coconuts from Hainan;

[0010] Step 2: Choose southern high-proof rice wine or Guizhou Maotai-flavor liquor;

[0011] Step 3: Choose fresh coconuts picked that day;

[0012] Step 4: Process the fresh green coconuts picked on the day. After selecting the coconuts that are round, without worm holes or cracks, you can use the following two methods to process them:

[0013] Solution 1: Peeling: Peel off the top and edges of the green coconut, making sure to keep the green coconut in a nice shape and to place it in a stable manner;

[0014] Option 2: No peeling: Cut off the stem, wash the surface and drain the water, trim the uneven parts of the coconut bottom to keep the original appearance of the green coconut to the greatest extent;

[0015] Step 5: Use an electric drill to drill a hole about 10 mm in diameter on the coconut;

[0016] Step 6: Prefabricate a thread-mouth wine pourer, a thread-mouth wine pourer for coconuts with a length of 50-70 mm and an inner space of about 7 mm, rotate the thread-mouth wine pourer to the inside of the coconut through the drilling hole, and reserve about 10 mm outside the coconut (for later jar wine and drinking). The interior of the prefabricated thread-mouth wine pourer is equipped with a filter net. When pouring out the liquor for later drinking, the pulp or shell inside the coconut can be filtered through the filter net to avoid affecting normal drinking;

[0017] Step 7: Mixing Coconut-flavored Liquor There are two main ways to mix coconut milk and liquor:

[0018] Method 1: Use a large syringe to extract some of the coconut juice inside the coconut, and then inject an appropriate amount of white wine into the coconut according to the alcohol content required. After mixing it with the remaining coconut juice inside the coconut, cover the silk-mouthed wine pourer. This method can preserve the original coconut juice to the greatest extent;

[0019] Method 2: Use a large syringe to extract all the coconut juice from the coconut, pour the coconut juice into a clean and sterile stainless steel barrel, add an appropriate amount of liquor to the stainless steel barrel according to the required alcohol content, then inject the prepared coconut wine into the coconut, and cover the silk-mouthed wine pourer. This method can keep the taste of each coconut-flavored liquor consistent;

[0020] The final alcohol content of Method 1 and Method 2 is in the range of 3%vol-53%vol;

[0021] Step 8: Use vacuum bags to seal the coconuts that have been injected with liquor, and store them in a cold storage environment at 2-8 degrees Celsius. After 8-12 weeks of storage, the coconut-flavored liquor is ready for drinking. When guests drink it, they only need to open the sealing cover of the prefabricated thread-mouth pourer and pour out the liquor through the prefabricated thread-mouth pourer.

[0022] Preferably, in Scheme 1 and Scheme 2 of step 4, when trimming the young coconut, it is necessary to avoid excessive trimming that penetrates the outer shell of the young coconut.

[0023] Preferably, in step five, the drill bit to be used is disinfected with alcohol before using the electric drill.

[0024] Preferably, the outer diameter of the prefabricated wire mouth wine pourer selected in step six needs to be controlled within 12-14 mm.

[0025] Preferably, in step eight, the guest may drink the liquor by opening the sealing cover of the prefabricated thread-mouth wine pourer, directly passing a straw through the prefabricated thread-mouth wine pourer and inserting it into the coconut shell, and directly drinking the liquor.

[0026] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0027] The coconut juice selected in the present application is the juice from freshly picked young coconuts, which can effectively ensure the freshness of the coconut juice. Its rich aroma can be better mixed with the aroma of white wine, increasing the taste when drinking later. The preparation process of the present invention is simple, saving the step of packaging bottle filling, which can effectively reduce production and material costs. When drinking later, the lid of the prefabricated wire mouth wine pourer can be directly opened, which is convenient for pouring wine. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0035] Step 2: Choose southern high-proof rice wine or Guizhou Maotai-flavor liquor;

[0036] Step 3: Choose fresh coconuts picked on the day. From June to August every year, pick mature coconuts from Hainan. Select the picked coconuts, choose coconuts with round bodies, no worm eyes, and no cracks. When selecting coconuts growing on trees, you need to choose coconuts with green skins. Choosing coconuts with green skins is to ensure the freshness of the coconut juice inside. Fresh coconut juice has a stronger coconut flavor. When mixed with wine later, it can better increase the coconut flavor of the liquor.

[0037] Step 4: Process the fresh green coconuts picked on the day. After selecting the coconuts that are round, without worm holes or cracks, you can use the following two methods to process them:

[0038] Solution 1: Peeling: Peel off the top and edges of the green coconut, making sure to keep the green coconut in a nice shape and to place it in a stable manner;

[0039] Option 2: No peeling: Cut off the stem, wash the surface and drain the water, trim the uneven parts of the coconut bottom to keep the original appearance of the green coconut to the greatest extent;
