There is a huge potential and place in the market if processed into bael products, which include the fruit leather, jams, and dried tea, etc. Considering the benefits of bael it is a energy reserve in its own. Therefore this review deals with the conversion of this energy reserve into a new Instant ready-to-serve (RTS) energy drink, the bael pulp (75% approx), TSS (13.5° Brix) is processed with sugar, maltodextrin, acidity regulator (330), acidity regulator (INS330), stabilizer (415) xanthan gum, stabilizer (466) sodium CMC, ascorbic acid (Vit C), tartaric acid, Water, Artificial color, Yellow 5, Yellow 6. The homogenous mixture of the above mentioned ingredients will be then spray dried (30-50 µm) depending on the solubility in water. The nutritional profile of the juice with the minimum guesstimate of the bael energy drink per 100g will be Energy 135 Kcal, Carbs 31.8 mg, Protein 1.5mg, Fat 1.1mg, Potassium 500mg, Fiber 3mg, Iron 1mg, Calcium 80mg, Phosphorus 45mg, Moisture 45-50mg, VitaminA 52mg, VitaminC 59mg, VitaminB1 0.11mg, VitaminB2 0.9mg, VitaminB3 1.1mg. This dirnk is the source of energy, aids in digestion, effective against ulcers and piles, purifies blood and remove toxins. There is a good prospect for commercialization of this medicinal bael-fruit instant drink.
