[0002] Fruit drinks are a common beverage. The production process of fruit juice drinks can be roughly divided into the following steps: Raw material preparation: Select fresh and ripe fruits as raw materials, wash and peel and remove the core to ensure the quality and hygiene of the raw materials. Juicing: Send the processed raw materials into the juicer for juicing to extract the juice of the fruit. Different methods such as mechanical squeezing, centrifugal separation or distillation can be used to extract the juice. Filtration and clarification: Filter the squeezed juice through a filter to remove solid particles and impurities. Then use a clarifier to remove turbid substances in the juice to make it clearer and more transparent. Preparation and heating: According to the product formula, the clarified juice is mixed and prepared with other additives, such as adding sugar, acidity regulator, preservatives, etc. Then heat the mixture to an appropriate temperature, generally around 80°C to achieve the effect of sterilization. Sterilization and filling: The heated mixture is sterilized again to ensure the hygiene and safety of the product. Then, fill the sterilized fruit juice drink into bottles or packaging boxes, and ensure that the packaging is sealed to prevent bacteria, oxygen or light from affecting the product. Packaging and quality inspection: The filled juice drinks can be packaged in different forms such as bottles, cans or boxes.
