Quality and discoloration of litchi juice from 4 litchi cultivars‘Desi’, ‘Calcutta’, ‘Rose scented’ and ‘Late Bedana’was reported by Jain et al. (1988) and squash prepared from‘Calcutta’ cultivar was found to be stable during 9 months storage whereas squash from cultivar ‘Late Bedana’ developed pink discoloration within 3 months storage at
28–39°C. The evaluation of 4 litchi cultivars grown in Uttar Pradesh, India indicated that ‘Rose scented’ variety had highest soluble solids (19°Brix), titrable acidity (0.25%), reducing sugar (9.2%) and total sugars (12.6%) (Tripathiet al. 1987). Litchi pulp heated to 85°C and added with 500 ppm SO2 and 1% citric acid could be stored for 6 months at 25–35°C and 12 months at 4–5°C (Sethi 1985).
