Abstract
An acetic acid-containing drink contains 0.02 w/v % or more of acetic acid and may also contain butyl propionate and/or isoamyl acetate. A method for producing an acetic acid-containing drink with reduced acetic acid odor and/or reduced pungent odor includes incorporating acetic acid at a concentration of 0.02 w/v % or more and also incorporating butyl propionate and/or isoamyl acetate into the drink.
Claims15
An acetic acid-containing drink comprising:
- 0.02 w/v % or more of acetic acid;
- 3 ppm or more of ethyl acetate;
- 0.05 to 100000 ppb of butyl propionate (component a);
- and
- 0.005 to 50000 ppb of isoamyl acetate (component b),
