The invention relates to a method and associated equipment for obtaining a product in the form of deep-frozen, dissolved-gas-rich granules, particles or beads from a liquid, semi-liquid or pasty matrix (2), comprising the following steps: gasification of the matrix (2) by incorporating a gas; dispensing the matrix (2) in the form of drops; and cryogenically freezing the matrix drops by immersion in a cryogenic fluid (70), the step of gasification of the matrix (2) involving dissolving a large amount of the gas generated by the evaporation of the cryogenic fluid in the drops by increasing the number of gas molecules in a high gas density zone, called high molecular density zone, located above the surface of the cryogenic fluid and on the path of the matrix drops before they are immersed in the fluid.

The present invention provides a novel sparkling beverage having foam retention and a method for improving foam retention. According to the present invention, provided is a sparkling beverage containing Reb. D and Reb. M, wherein a content of Reb. D is 60 to 600 ppm, a content of Reb. M is 50 to 600 ppm, a total content of Reb. D and Reb. M is 110 ppm to 700 ppm, and (Reb. D content)/(Reb. M content) is 2.50 or less, and pH is 2.5 to 6.0.

The invention relates to separated, decompacted, cellulose-based fibres acquired from a vegetable raw material, wherein the separated, decompacted, cellulose-based fibres have an aspect ratio after soaking in water of longitudinal diameter to transverse diameter of 1:1 to 1000:1 and a water-binding capacity of >200 wt. % and a water retention capacity of >50%, and a method for acquiring and producing these separated, decompacted cellulose-based fibres. The purification method involves incubation of the vegetable material with an aqueous decomposition solution containing at least one dissolved amino acid and/or peptide with 2-50 amino acids to decompose the compacted cellulose-based fibres.

A method of making a pressurized packaged liquid beverage including filling a container including a one-way valve with a liquid mixture including a base liquid and a gum; sealing the container; introducing a volume of gas through the one-way valve after sealing the container; and agitating the container. When the container is opened, the liquid mixture increases in volume and separates into a liquid phase and a drinkable foam phase, which may persist for an extended period of time. The base liquid includes milk, coffee, fruit juice, or mixtures thereof.
