Jelly-containing beverage and method for manufacturing same

Abstract

Provided is a method for manufacturing a packaged jelly-containing beverage, said manufacturing method including manufacturing a jelly-containing beverage by individually sterilizing a liquid A containing a cation-reactive gelling agent and a liquid B that contains a cation, then filling the liquids into the same container and mixing the liquid A and the liquid B in the container, the liquid A being essentially devoid of a hardly soluble calcium salt, the pH of the liquid A after sterilization being 2.0 to less than 5.5, the viscosity after sterilization of the liquid A measured using a single-cylinder rotational viscometer at a temperature of 25° C. being 5-150 mPa·s, and the viscosity after sterilization of the liquid B measured using a single-cylinder rotational viscometer at a temperature of 25° C. being 10 mPa·s to less than 50 mPa·s.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
