The invention discloses a
traditional Chinese medicine beverage capable of soothing nerves, helping sleep and regulating emotion and a preparation method thereof, and particularly relates to the field of
traditional Chinese medicine pharmaceutics. The beverage realizes sleep aiding through jujuboside, spinosin,
eleutheroside,
cyclic adenosine monophosphate and the like, regulates emotion through fingered citron
lactone, rose volatile oil and the like, and tranquilizes and stabilizes mind by using
hericium erinaceus, hawthorn flavone and the like. The preparation method comprises the following steps: carrying out differential pretreatment on raw materials; volatile oil, water-soluble functional components and
flavor substances are obtained through circulating
percolation extraction, dynamic countercurrent extraction and mild extraction by adopting a stepped directional extraction process; and precisely filtering and clarifying the extracting solution through a
ceramic membrane, compounding with aromatic volatile oil, and sterilizing and filling by adopting a 550MPa ultrahigh-pressure cold sterilization technology. The method overcomes the defects of low extraction efficiency and easy loss of
active components in the traditional process, realizes efficient synergistic extraction and complete retention of various
active components, and has the advantages of fresh taste, stable character, long
shelf life and accurate and controllable process parameters.
