摘要

A beverage is provided that is given a colorless and transparent fruit savor that can be felt as the return aroma of fruit or a natural fruity taste, even when the beverage drunk directly from a container having a small opening like a PET bottle. The beverage satisfies “X≧0.01” and “Y≧3.1X+0.85” when the valencene concentration is set to X (mg/L), and the linalool concentration is set to Y (mg/L) in a colorless and transparent beverage.
