Abstract

See full text

A thickened juice beverage contains juice and homogenized pulp and/or homogenized finisher-derived solids. The beverage has a measured viscosity between about 50 and about 125 cps at the time of manufacture and the pulp or solids do not significantly change the smoothness or taste profile of the juice. The homogenized pulp and homogenized finisher-derived solids have an average particle size of less than 1000 microns and 1500 microns, respectively. Optionally, the juice beverage meets the standard of identity of a 100% juice, such as an orange juice.
