Disclosed are beverage products with improved vitamin stability. The beverage products include an effective amount of a aminopolycarboxylic acid as well as an effective amount of a polyphosphate, and can be enriched with one or more vitamins or other nutrients. In one embodiment, the beverage products include added water, fruit juice, ascorbic acid, ethylene diamine tetra-acetic acid (EDTA), sodium hexametaphosphate, and potassium sorbate. The beverage can be packaged in relatively inexpensive HDPE-type containers which are generally oxygen permeable, and do not require the use of special oxygen barrier packaging to preserve the vitamins and flavor oils from oxidation. |
