An all-in-one beverage serving and a method of manufacturing the all-in-one beverage serving is described. The method includes: forming a mixture of a predetermined amount of panela, a predetermined amount of an active ingredient, optionally a predetermined amount of a functional component, and optionally a predetermined amount of a flavoring component. The method then includes placing the mixture into a mold and compressing the mixture to form a solid tablet (e.g., the all-in-one beverage serving). The solid tablet may then be placed into water or milk (or a similar beverage) to form an instant beverage for a user to enjoy.

Provided is a heat-sterilized and packed beverage containing a high concentration of a medium chain triglyceride (MCT) and obtained by heat sterilization, wherein issues of poor aftertaste and throat discomfort caused by a combination of a high concentration of the MCT and heat sterilization are resolved. The heat-sterilized and packed beverage is obtained by causing 10-120 mg/100 ml of caffeine to coexist with a beverage containing 1.2-32 g/100 ml of the MCT.

The present invention relates to processes for providing coffee compositions with enhanced coffee aromas. In addition the invention relates to the use of such coffee compositions for making capsules for beverage dispensers.

Described herein is a positron emission tomography (PET) detector array that has a plurality of detector elements, with each detector element mounted on a resilient, rigid support surface. A detector element movement system is connected to each rigid support surface, so that each detector element can be moved independently. This allows for the relative position of the individual detectors to be changed during imaging so that the imaging window can be increased or decreased during imaging, thereby allowing for improved, better resolution imaging of smaller volumes if desired.

The present invention relates to a liquid composition for enriching aqueous or hydro-alcoholic food, cosmetic and/or dermatological products. The invention also relates to the use of said liquid composition and to the method for producing said liquid composition.

[Problem] The present invention addresses the problem of providing a cellulose composite whereby the cellulose composite itself disperses stably even when ions are blended in a high concentration in a beverage, and also has excellent suspension stability. [Solution] A cellulose composite comprising cellulose, an anionic polysaccharide not having a chemically crosslinked structure, and water-absorbent particles comprising a compound having a chemically crosslinked structure wherein the cellulose composite has a viscosity of 10 mPa.Math.s or higher when 1 mass % of the cellulose composite is dispersed in an aqueous solution in which 0.45 g of sodium bicarbonate is dissolved in 100 mL of pure water.

A ground roast coffee tablet which is capable of being brewed in a conventional automatic drip coffee maker, and which exhibits sufficient strength to withstand all aspects of manufacture, handling, packaging, transport without breakage but also readily disintegrates when contacted with hot water during brewing, is made by subjecting conventional ground, roasted coffee to a multi-step compaction process in which at least two compression steps are carried out in the same compaction die.
