Abstract
A juice-type drink, which is rich in the medicinal components of buckwheat, can be easily taken and has a favorable appearance in a pink color, is produced by using a press juice obtained from young buds or flowers of buckwheat. Young buds or flowers of buckwheat are pressed. The press juice thus obtained is once frozen and then thawed followed by fermentation at ordinary temperature with lactic acid bacteria and yeasts. A pink supernatant is separated to give a buckwheat bud/flower juice. By once freezing and then thawing the press juice spontaneously undergoes the fermentation with lactic acid bacteria and yeasts and thus the pink supernatant can be separated out.
