FIELD: food industry.

SUBSTANCE: present invention relates to milk-and-grain beverage for young children. The milk-and-grain beverage includes a milk component, a hydrolysed whole grain composition, α-amylase or its fragment, sugar or non-sugar sweetener. α-amylase or its fragment in an active condition does not display any hydrolytic activity with regard to food fibres. Sugar or non-sugar sweetener content is lower than 15 wt % of the milk-and-grain beverage. The milk-and-grain beverage contains at least one substance chosen from calcium, vitamin A, vitamin D, zinc, ferrum or any their combinations. The milk-and-grain beverage has viscosity within the range of 1 - 300 mPa•s. The method for manufacture of the milk-and-grain beverage envisages preparation of hydrolysed whole grain composition and its mixing with the milk component and at least one ingredient chosen from calcium, vitamin A, vitamin D, zinc, ferrum or any their combinations. The hydrolysed whole grain composition preparation involves the following stages: a) whole grain component interaction with the enzyme composition in water; the enzyme composition contains at least one α-amylase; the said enzyme composition does not display any hydrolytic activity with regard to food fibres, b) creation of conditions for reaction of the enzyme composition with the whole grain composition with formation of a whole grain hydrolysate, c) obtainment of the hydrolysed whole grain composition by way of the said enzymes inactivation when the said hydrolysate viscosity measured at 65°C is within the range of 50 - mPa•s. The milk-and-grain beverage contains sugar or non-sugar sweetener in an amount lower than 15%; the beverage viscosity is equal to 1 - 300 mPa•s.

EFFECT: invention allows to manufacture the ready product for young children with increased whole grain content with undamaged nutritive fibres as well as with improved carbohydrate profile.
