METHOD FOR PRODUCING MILK-AND-VEGETAL BEVERAGE Russian patent published in 2017 - IPC A23C9/00 B65D81/32 

FIELD: food industry.

SUBSTANCE: method involves mixing milk and a vegetable component immediately before consumption, using a container for storing and mixing two components of the food product. The container comprises the external reservoir for storing milk, closed with the cover, and the internal reservoir for storing the vegetable component of the final product, placed therein with the fixation on the external reservoir neck, with the plug closing the internal reservoir. The area of mechanically fragile material and the movable element located under the plug closing the internal reservoir are made on the internal reservoir. The container is made with the possbility of tearing the area made of mechanically fragile material on the internal reservoir by means of the movable element displacement caused by pressing the interlal reservoir plug, with transferring the vegetable component into the external reservoir. The milk may be subjected to sterilisation before being placed in the internal reservoir. The vegetable component may be treated in order to facilitate blending with the milk before placing in the internal reservoir.

EFFECT: method allows to obtain a drink of extended storage without introducing stabilisers in the final product and using various stabilization technologies with the simultaneous simplification of its production process, and to increase its biological value.
