Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of plant beverages, and in particular to a method for preparing a berry tea beverage. Background Art

[0002] The main components of berry tea are two types of active substances, flavonoids and polysaccharides, which have many functions such as clearing away heat and detoxification, anti-inflammatory and relieving sore throat, etc. However, due to the high content of flavonoids, the bitter taste is heavier. The polysaccharide content is high but the soluble polysaccharide content is low, which forms the bitter taste of berry tea. At the same time, berry tea has a light grassy fragrance, but the fragrance is light. Aroma is an important indicator of tea quality; berry tea has a low content of protein and amino acids, and flavor amino acids are also an important component of tea quality. How to improve the bitter taste of berry tea, increase the soluble sugar content, increase the amino acid content (especially the flavor amino acid content) and the content of flavor substances is one of the important indicators for improving the quality of berry tea. The conventional method of further processing and utilization of berry tea has the problem of poor fragrance and taste.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to propose a new preparation method of berry tea beverage. Summary of the invention

[0004] In order to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art, the present invention provides a method for preparing a berry tea beverage, which effectively reduces the astringency of the berry tea and increases the solubility and aroma of active nutrients.

[0005] A method for preparing a berry tea beverage of the present invention comprises the following steps: Step 1, picking the berries 2-3 hours after sunrise in September every year, using one bud and two or three leaves as the raw materials for preparing berry tea beverage; Step 2, pre-treating the raw materials of step 1, specifically: evenly mixing the picked berry tea leaves with 0.8-1.2% ascorbic acid, maintaining the temperature at 65°C-75°C for 3-4 days; then heating to 85°C and maintaining for 3-4 hours; Step 3, the berry tea leaves pretreated in step 2 are subjected to secondary bio-enzyme fermentation: the fermentation time of the first bio-enzyme fermentation is 3-5 days, the temperature is controlled at 40-50° C., the stacking thickness is 8-12 cm, and the leaves are turned over 1-2 times during the fermentation period; the fermentation time of the second bio-enzyme fermentation is 1-2 days, and the temperature is controlled at 35-45° C.; Step 4, filtering the fermented berry tea leaves, extracting the filtrate at low temperature, and decolorizing the extract with biological activated carbon to obtain a berry tea beverage.

[0006] Furthermore, the fermentation broth of the primary bio-enzyme fermentation includes the following enzyme composition: cellulase, pectinase, Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus fumigatus, Aspergillus root, Penicillium, Mucor, White mold, lactic acid bacteria, and acetic acid bacteria. The enzyme composition is added with water to prepare a primary bio-enzyme fermentation broth, and the fermentation broth is added at a weight percentage of 1-3% to the berry tea leaves.

[0007] Furthermore, the fermentation broth of the secondary bio-enzyme fermentation includes the following enzyme composition: flavor protease, papain, subtilisin, grain wine yeast, lactic acid yeast, lactic acid bacteria, and acetic acid bacteria. The enzyme composition is added with water to prepare the secondary bio-enzyme fermentation broth, and the fermentation broth is added according to the weight percentage of berry tea leaves at 0.5-1.5%.

[0008] The beneficial effects of the present invention are: The invention discloses a method for preparing a berry tea beverage: the raw material is selected from early to late September every year, 2-3 hours after sunrise, one bud, two leaves or three leaves of berry tea. After extraction, the berry tea is light green, has a mellow grass flavor, is sweet in the mouth, and has a long aftertaste. The berry tea is transformed by intracellular enzyme system biotransformation, and the biological enzyme and microbial dominant flora fermentation transformation are used. The enzyme system produced in the fermentation of the biological enzyme and microorganism hydrolyzes the cell wall components cellulose, lignin, and pectin into macromolecular sugars, small molecular sugars, etc., and then the microbial dominant flora ferments and utilizes sugar growth or substrate conversion to stimulate metabolites, so that the four material components of berry tea leaves themselves, intracellular enzyme system biotransformation products, dominant flora fermentation products, and dominant flora self-metabolites are enriched. In the final extraction, ultra-low temperature pulverization is used, and then cold extraction is performed, and after being decolorized by biological activated carbon, the final berry tea beverage has a refreshing, sweet, and throat-clearing effect, is rich in nutrients, and is rich in flavonoids 3.84%, polysaccharides 1.36%, and total protein 0.51%.
