METHOD FOR PRODUCING VODKA "SEREBRO SIBIRI PREMIUM" Russian patent published in 2006 - IPC C12G3/08 A23L1/30 

FIELD: liqueur and vodka industry.

SUBSTANCE: method involves mixing rectified ethyl alcohol "Luks" and purified water to provides the strength value 40% in the prepared mixture. Natural honey is diluted with softened water in the ratio = 1:5, stirred thoroughly, brought about to boiling, filtered in hot state, cooled and separated for two equal parts. Sodium hydrocarbonate is dissolved in alcoholic mixture in the ratio = 1:10 followed by its separation for two equal parts. Sea-buckthorn fruits taken in the amount 1.0-2.0 kg is poured with an aqueous-alcoholic liquid with the strength 45% in the ratio = 1:1, infused for 10 days, fruit juice is poured off, and residue is poured with an aqueous-alcoholic liquid again with the strength 30% taken in the amount 1.0-1.1 l, infused for 10 days, fruit juice is poured off and the first and the second fruit juices are combined. Then fruit juice is filtered and separated for two equal parts. Honey, sodium hydrocarbonate and fruit juice taken in the equal parts are added to alcoholic mixture, stirred thoroughly and treated with activated carbon by passing through carbon cleansing battery at the filtering rate up to 40 dal/h for fresh carbon and 30 dal/h for regenerated carbon followed by feeding vodka into finishing tank. Remaining parts of honey, sodium hydrocarbonate and fruit juice are added to finishing tank with vodka wherein the complex food supplement "Bonavit" dissolved preliminary in an aqueous-alcoholic liquid is added also. After addition of components vodka is stirred thoroughly and its strength is controlled. Ready vodka is fed for bottling with obligatory control filtration. Method involves the following consumption of components for preparing 1000 dal of vodka: natural honey, 10.0-11.0 kg; sodium hydrocarbonate, 0.3-0.5 kg; complex food supplement "Bonavit", 1.0-3.0 kg; sea-buckthorn fruit juice, 2.5-3.5 l, and an aqueous-alcoholic liquid, the balance. Proposed method provides enhancing the content of biologically active substances by 4.0% due to using the complex food supplement "Bonavit" that comprises lactulosa and maltose, and also organic acids similar with citric acid, and buckthorn fruit juice wherein sugars, organic acids, vitamins E, P, group B, PP, K and C, provitamin A, resins, trace elements - manganese, magnesium, silicon, titanium, aluminum, fatty acids, pectin substances and tannic substances are extracted. This provides reducing vodka toxicity by 15%. Also, addition of supplement and fruit juice for two stages allows activation of honey effect at early stage that promotes to the intensive reducing vodka toxicity also.

EFFECT: improved producing method, improved and valuable properties of vodka.
