Ambient stable beverage

摘要

A method for preparing an ambient-stable beverage that is suitable for cold filing. The method involves adding to a beverage at least one pasteurization adjunct that has no appreciable fungicidal activity at a temperature between 0 and 40 degrees C but exhibits fungicidal activity when heated to a temperature between 40 and 65 degrees C, and raising the temperature of the beverage to a temperature between 40 and 65 degrees C in order to activate the fungicidal activity of the pasteurisation adjunct.
