The present disclosure relates to extracts and sweetening compositions that may be wholly derived from fruits of the Cucurbitaceae family containing mogroside V and other terpene glycosides. The extracts have a low mogroside V content. The extracts also have a low monosaccharide content, and can be spray-dried to form a spray-dried product. The extracts may be suitable for use as a bulking agent, and can be combined with a terpene glycoside powder. The extracts and sweetening compositions can be used in a food, beverage, and dietary supplement products. Provided are also methods for preparing such extracts and sweetening compositions.

The present disclosure relates to methods of producing a sweet juice composition from monk fruit and other fruit of the Cucurbitaceae family containing mogroside V and other terpene glycosides. The methods employ a cation exchange resin and an anion exchange resin to obtain a sweet juice composition with a clean flavor. The sweet juice composition can be used in a food, beverage, pharmaceutical or dietary supplement product.

The present disclosure generally relates to beverages, and to systems and methods for creating beverages. In certain aspects, a beverage precursor can be contained within a gel, such as a carboxylate agarose gel or other gel suitable for human consumption. The precursor can be mixed with water to form a beverage. In some cases, a composition comprising the beverage precursor may also contain ice, e.g., a gel may be frozen or embedded in the ice. The ice may be heated or mixed with water (or otherwise physically disrupted) to release the precursor, which mixes with the water to form the beverage. A variety of beverage precursors are possible, including alcoholic beverages (e.g., beer, wine, rum, cognac, cocktails, etc.), juices, etc. In addition, in certain embodiments, the precursors may also include gas-forming agents, and/or other ingredients suitable for drinks, such as sugar, artificial sweetener, food coloring, flavoring, etc. Other aspects include methods for making or using such compositions, kits including such compositions, or the like.

This disclosure relates to a method and a system for processing grapes. An example system includes a simulated moving bed (SMB) device configured to receive a feed stream and an eluent stream as inputs and provide an extract stream and a raffinate stream as outputs. The feed stream includes a grape juice, the extract stream includes a high-sugar grape juice, and the raffinate stream includes a low-sugar grape juice. The system also includes fermentation equipment configured to produce a low-alcohol wine from the low-sugar grape juice.
