Abstract:
The present invention relates to beverage products. In particular, the invention is concerned with a protein system induced by controlled aggregation of milk proteins which imparts outstanding sensory attributes on beverage product, in particular when containing no fat and/or reduced sugar. A method of producing such beverage and the products obtainable from the method are also part of the present invention.

Claim (Index 9):
A method of producing a RTD beverage comprising the steps of:\n mixing fat-free milk; added carbohydrate less than 5 wt/wt %; an acidifier; a stabilizing system comprising a co-processed microcrystalline cellulose, carboxymethyl cellulose in the range of about 0.09-0.15 wt/wt %, and carrageenan in the range of about 0.01-0.03 wt/wt % and high acyl gellan gum in the range of 0.01 to 0.03 wt/wt %; and the beverage comprises casein-whey protein aggregates having a volume based mean diameter value D [4,3] is from 7 to 15 \u03bcm as measured by laser diffraction; adjusting pH to 6.25 to 6.4 using the acidifier; homogenizing the mixture at total pressure ranging from 135-300 bars and temperature ranging from 65-80\u00b0 C.; sterilizing at UHT conditions at 136-150\u00b0 C. for 3-30 seconds; cooling the obtained beverage base product to 25\u00b0 C. or below; and filling aseptically UHT beverages in aseptic containers.
