Abstract
The object of the present invention is to provide an alcohol beverage that simultaneously achieves the rich flavor of the fruit juice component and regulates the precipitation and flavor deterioration associated with long term storage. The effects of endowing a rich flavor from a fruit juice component to the alcohol beverage and effectively regulating the precipitation and flavor deterioration caused by storing the beverage for a long time results from using a stored base liquid obtained by mixing an alcohol and a fruit juice to achieve a mixture whose alcohol by volume is 13 to 20 v/v %, then storing the mixture.
