Abstract:
Freshly extracted sugarcane juice is a very popular drink in India. Presently, the juice is being
extracted using hand/power operated crusher which cannot be stored for a
couple of hours due to its fast deteriorating quality. Sugarcane juice is quite
nutritious as it contains natural sugars, minerals like iron, magnesium,
phosphorous, calcium and organic acids e.g. malic acid, succinic acid, acotinic
acid, amino acid, protein, starch, gums, waxes, non-sugar phosphatides. The
sugarcane juice preserved and packed in 200 mL glass bottle has a good storage
life and is available during off-season also.
