Characterization of optimized formulation
The physicochemical and biochemical characteristics of the optimized beverage resembled the quality attributes of litchi juice
(Kaushik, Kaur, & Rao, 2013), as expected, although modified slightly
by coconut water and lemon juice (Table 4). As an example, the ascorbic
acid content of the fresh beverage was 21.8 mg/100 mL, which lies within the range of ascorbic acid in “Bombai” variety of litchi
