Abstract

Mixing of orange juice with whey was carried out in the ratio of 70: 30, 60: 40 and 50: 50. Carbonation of the prepared fruit juice whey drink was carried out manually. Orange juice carbonated whey drink was most acceptable in the ratio of 70: 30. The nutrient analysis of most acceptable form of orange juice carbonated whey drink showed a general increase in nutrients with the addition of whey ascompared to standard orange juice. This experiment conducted at household level can be commercialized to provide a healthy alternative to soft drinks and reduce the biological oxygen demand of whey.
