The invention relates to a isotonic nutritional composition in gel form comprising at least 40 wt % of one or more partially hydrolyzed starch having a dextrose equivalent (DE) of from 0.5 to 4 and an amylose content below 5 wt % of the partially hydrolyzed starch. The partially hydrolyzed starch is preferably derived from a waxy starch, more preferably from a waxy corn starch, a waxy wheat starch, a waxy potato starch or the like.

A beverage composition made with low-calorie, lactose-free skim milk in liquid or dry powder form. Amelanchier alnifolia extract having Abscisic Acid is added to the skim milk in a multi-step process that utilizes CO.sub.2 to maintain the nutrient value of the extract. Crystalline fructose, natural flavorings, nutrients and carbonation are added to produce a flavorful beverage composition. A method to make a carbonated beverage composition with low-calorie, lactose-free skim milk and Amelanchier alnifolia extract includes a series of steps to preserve the nutrient value of the extract.
