The invention provides a
donkey-hide
gelatin solid beverage and a preparation method thereof, the preparation method comprises the following steps: adding 8 times by
mass of water into rhizoma polygonati, Chinese wolfberry,
astragalus membranaceus,
codonopsis pilosula, red dates,
angelica sinensis and orange peel, soaking for 0.5 h, extracting for 2 h for the first time, adding 6 times by
mass of water for extracting for 1.5 h for the second time, combining filtrates, and concentrating until the
relative density is 1.23 g / cm < 3 > to obtain a
water extraction concentrated solution; mixing the
water extraction concentrated solution with
maltodextrin, and
drying to obtain an extract; and adding auxiliary materials into the extract and the
donkey-hide
gelatin, and molding to obtain the
donkey-hide
gelatin solid beverage. In the extraction step, proper soaking time, water adding amount and extraction time are combined, so that the
ferulic acid content, the total
polysaccharide content, the
hesperidin content and the
calycosin-7-
glucoside content in the concentrated solution are all higher. And on the basis, subsequent
drying and forming are carried out, so that the final donkey-hide gelatin
solid beverage also has relatively high content of the components, and the content in each batch of products is stable.
