Production And Evaluation Of Pineapple (Ananas Comosus) And Watermelon (Citrullus Lanatus) Fruit Juice Flavoured With Ginger (Zingiber Officinale).
ABSTRACT
Fresh mixed fruit juices comprising of pineapple (Ananas comosus) and watermelon (Citrullus
lanatus) were produced using 0.5%, 0.10% and 0.15% concentration of ginger liquid extract as a
flavourant. Proximate compositions of the samples were investigated and the results showed that
the carbohydrate content of sample PWG(Pineapple, Watermelon and Ginger)(10.53%) was
higher than samples WPG(Watermelon, Pineapple and Ginger)(7.53%) and GPW(Ginger,
Pineapple and Watermelon)(9.41%). pH and total soluble solids increased
PWG(Pineapple,Watermelon and Ginger)(4.70%) and GPW(Ginger,Pineapple and Watermelon)
(12.13%). The fresh mixed fruit juice sample WPG(Waterinelon,Pineapple and Ginger) recorded
higher vitamin A content than sample PWG(Pineapple,Watermelon and Ginger) and
GPW(Ginger,Pineapple and Watermelon). The vitamin C content was higher in sample
GPW(Ginger,Pineapple and Watermelon). Sensory analysis revealed that all the mixed fruit juice
samples were generally accepted but mixed fruit juice sample flavoured with (10%) ginger
extract WPG(Watermelon,Pineapple and Ginger) was the most preferred in terms of taste, colour
,Aroma and general acceptability.
