Quality Evaluation Of Fruit Juice Made From Ginger (Zingiber Officinale) And Pineapple (Ananas Comosus) Blends.
ABSTRACT
Fruit juices are beverages which
are commonly consumed for their refreshing attributes, nutritive values and
health benefits. In Nigeria, most of the fruit drinks are imported (Frank et
at., 2005). Locally processed fruit drinks are highly needed in order to reduce
foreign exchange for importation. Fruit juices are easy to process and blended
with other products (Bates et at., 2001). A whole fruit can be directly
squeezed, macerated or crushed so as to produce a considerable amount of pulp
or juice or may be extracted by water. The extracted juice could be used in
their natural state or could be concentrated by evaporation or freezing and
could be preserved by bottling, canning or freezing (Frazier and Westhoff,
1998).Juices are obtained from a single fruit or from different kinds of fruits
and vegetables (Tombak, 2000). A mixture of juices balances out certain
nutrients which may not be present in a single fruit or vegetable. Beside
adding body and improving the nutritive value, mixtures also compensate for the
sourness or bitterness of a particular juice (Smith etal., 1997).
