A fermented sparkling vinegar beverage includes a fermented solution formed of 0 vol % of to 15 vol % of raw vinegar, 3 vol % of to 15 vol % of sugar, 0 vol % of to 5 vol % of honey, 0 vol % of to 0.3 vol % of salt, 0 vol % of to 40 vol % of plant extracts, 1 vol % of to 5 vol % of yeast liquid, and water. Composition of yeast liquid varies according to different product flavors; yeast strains are selected from Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Hanseniaspora osmophila, Hanseniaspora valbyensis, Torulaspora delbrueckii, and Dekkera bruxellensis in different ratios, and the yeast strains generate metabolite and produce bubbles in the fermented solution. Therefore, the present invention brews the fermented solution by yeast liquid formed of various yeasts, applying the metabolites and bubbles generated through fermentation of the yeast strains to alleviate sour content of the raw vinegar, so as to improve the drinking taste of the fermented solution.

Provided are a polyphenol-rich and low-sugar beverage of fermented jujube pulp and a preparation method thereof. The fermented jujube pulp beverage is prepared with a method including the following steps: (1) selecting jujubes that are free of rot and are not insect-eaten, rinsing with pure water, pre-boiling in boiling water, and removing cores; (2) beating the jujubes whose cores are removed in step (1) into a beating machine to obtain a jujube pulp; (3) pouring the jujube pulp in step (2) into a colloid mill for processing to refine jujube peels to obtain a refined jujube pulp; (4) subjecting the refined jujube pulp to ultra-high-pressure sterilization; and (5) inoculating Streptococcus thermophilus into the jujube pulp after the sterilization in step (4), and performing a fermentation cultivation to obtain a fermented jujube pulp.

A vegan cheese and a method to make the vegan cheese are described. The vegan cheese includes: cauliflower milk, a yeast, a salt, a butter and/or an oil, at least one starch, and at least one other ingredient. The at least one other ingredient includes: a mold, a bacterium, a fungus, a sweetener, a stabilizer, a powder, a solid food substance, a liquid, and a paste. Methods to create a hemp milk, an oat milk, and an oat and hemp milk are also described.

A process that produces a non-alcohol cereal beverage (NACB) includes separating an input fermented malt beverage (FMB) into an output FMB and the NACB, wherein the separating includes multiple stages; and adding water during the separating so that the output FMB has the same alcohol by volume (ABV) as the input FMB during each stage of the separating.

The present invention belongs to the technical field of beverages, and relates to a probiotic fermented fruit and vegetable puree product. The probiotic fermented fruit and vegetable puree product is obtained by fermenting fruit and vegetable puree with Lactobacillus casei NCU215. The probiotic fermented fruit and vegetable pure provided by the present invention has the following characteristics: the probiotic fermented fruit and vegetable puree may generate a natural mellow sour, effectively remove an astringency in fruit and a wild artemisia flavor in vegetable, and neutralize an unpleasant sour in the fruit; with probiotic fermentation, the present invention may improve a content of amino acid in the fruit and vegetable by 20% or more, generate multiple aromatic substances, improve a flavor substance by 30% or more, and effectively improve a taste and a mouthfeel of the product; the present invention prolongs a shelf life of the product and prevents rot.

A fermented beverage is described together with a method for its production from one or more component of a Cannabis plant. The beverage comprises carbohydrates derived from hydrolysis of cellulose and/or hemicellulose from Cannabis, as a fermentation substrate. The beverage may contain alcohol or may be non-alcoholic. Active phytocannabinoid compounds may be present, preferably in the non-alcoholic beverages. The method includes the steps of (a) obtaining a cellulose-rich pulp from the one or more components of the Cannabis plant, from which lignin and/or hemicellulose has been released (through any number of multiple prehydrolysis steps); (b) degrading the cellulose-rich pulp into carbohydrates (saccharification step) with enzymatic hydrolysis by one or more cellulose-degrading and/or hemicellulose-degrading enzymes, and/or with acid hydrolysis to form carbohydrates; (c) preparing a wort from the carbohydrates with (or if desired without) sufficient yeast nutritional requirements and flavoring from portions of the Cannabis plant; and (d) fermenting the wort to form the fermented beverage. (e) Optionally performing steps to finish the beer including but not limited to aging, alcohol removal, formulation and flavoring by addition of phytocannabinoids and/or terpenes, xylooligimers, and/or Cannabis extracts and/or Cannabis oils with or without accelerants (to accelerate the onset of the bioactive effect) and/or deccelerants (to shorten the duration of the bioactive effect) as desired. The optional removal of alcohol may be conducted by reverse osmosis or other process. Phytocannabinoids or flavorings may be introduced as desired.

Provided is a dietary fiber characterized in that bitterness and unpleasant aftertaste are restrained. The dietary fiber has terminal sugars and is characterized in that the ratio of aldoses relative to the total of the terminal sugars is 10% or less. Such a dietary fiber may be, for example, indigestible dextrin, polydextrose or the like. The dietary fiber may be used as a food additive (for example, a beverage additive).

The present invention provides a lactic acid bacterial fermentation-promoting agent suitable for use in food production. The present invention relates to a fermentation promoting agent for Streptococcus thermophilus, comprising a solution prepared by exposing an alkaline solution comprising a reducing sugar to a temperature in the range of 5° C. or more and 135° C. or less to induce a color reaction of sugar, and a production method thereof; and a method for promoting fermentation for Streptococcus thermophilus using the fermentation promoting agent and a method for producing a fermented food such as fermented milk.

A method of stabilizing a fermented beverage and controlling an alcohol content within the fermented beverage are provided. A method of stabilizing the fermented beverage may include fermenting a beverage base to produce the fermented beverage. The fermented beverage may be filtered to remove residual yeast within the fermented beverage.

A fermented beverage and method for producing the same are provided. A method of producing a fermented beverage may include providing acid whey. The acid whey may be fermented. Fermentation of the acid whey may be arrested. Flavoring may be added to the fermented acid whey.
