Posted by watertree under Drinking

Coca-Cola Company recently announced that they will produce the world’s unprecedented Fizzy Milk / milk, soft drinks, the drink will be mixed carbonated soft drinks and skimmed milk, and fruit flavors with. Plans to create a new kind of popular drinks.

This milk will be vested in the Coca-Cola’s soft drinks brands Vio, it will first test in the New York area sales. Coca-Cola wrote copy: like a birthday party for a polar bear. Source Digg Link

At present, there are four types of soft drinks Vio milk tastes: peach mango, berries, citrus and tropical colada.

COWS may not think it is the real thing but Coca-Cola is set to launch fizzy milk on the world.

The drink contains skimmed milk mixed with sparking water, flavoured with fruit and sweetened with cane sugar.

Scientists have developed the drink at the firm’s laboratories in Atlanta, Georgia, ensuring it will not curdle in its 8oz aluminium bottle.

Going under the name Vio, Coca-Cola has begun test-marketing the carbonated drink at natural food stores and delis in New York It sells for about £1.50 a bottle, no chilling required. One of Coke’s copywriters claims it tastes “like a birthday party for a polar bear”.

It comes in four “natural” flavours — peach mango, berry, citrus and tropical colada — and could even be marketed as a healthy nutritional drink. But it has 26g of sugar a bottle, on a par with other non-diet Coca-Cola products, and 1.5g of fat.

A flavour tester for BevNET.com, a drink industry research site, who tasted the citrus version, said: “It’s big on milk flavour and, as a result, has a somewhat creamy body. It didn’t seem sweet until you consumed almost a whole bottle.”

The drink is part of a wider Coke initiative called Project Life to develop milk-based products. If it is a success in the United States it could be launched globally.

Coca-Cola GB said there were no plans for a British version but added: “We are constantly listening to consumers.”

David Jago, director of insight and innovation at Mintel, the consumer research firm, said: “I suspect it is a bit of a novelty. British people will expect a milk drink to be chilled and will be suspicious if they see it on the shelves.”

Wine Moon Astrology

Posted by watertree under Drinking

While there is no scientific basis, but several major UK retailers (Tesco, Marks, Spencer, etc.), have begun to promote and encourage customers, according to the moon cycle to taste wine.

They firmly believe that the moon god of wine can give a particular taste. Link

Marks & Spencer and even pointed out that the most inappropriate time to drink wine.

It is said that the first wine to the moon and to link people, 47 years ago a German woman Maria Thun. Each day she is divided into fruit, flower, leaf, root, corresponding to different cycles of the moon and the taste of wine.

Tesco to the person in charge: the best days to drink wine is Fruit Day. Source

Will Gau holds his glass of ruby chinon to the light and tastes. “It’s strict, a little dusty, a little jagged,” says the wine connoisseur. But his disappointment may not be down to bad selection or the bottle being corked but to an altogether more cosmic force: the moon.

The idea that the taste of wine changes with the lunar calendar is gaining credibility among the UK’s major retailers, who believe the day, and even hour, on which wine is drunk alters its taste. Tesco and its rival Marks & Spencer, which sell about a third of all wine drunk in Britain, now invite critics to taste their ranges only at times when the biodynamic calendar suggests they will show at their best.

Marks & Spencer has gone a step further and is advising customers to avoid disappointment from the best bottles by making sure not to open them on “root” days.

The calendar has been published for the last 47 years by a gardening great-grandmother called Maria Thun, who lives in rural Germany. She categorises days as “fruit”, “flower”, “leaf” or “root”, according to the moon and stars. Fruit and flower are normally best for tasting, and leaf and root worst.

This weekend happens to be root, from 8am today to 10pm tomorrow. Those who believe in the theory admit it has overtones of “druids dancing in the moonlight” but believe the effect can be explained by considering the wine in a bottle as a living organism which responds to the rhythms of the moon in a similar way to human biology.

The concept is an extension of biodynamic farming in which decisions about when to sow and prune are made according to patterns of lunar and cosmic rhythms. It was developed from a series of lectures given in 1924 by the Austrian philosopher-scientist Rudolf Steiner.

Tesco has used the calendar for more than two years to decide on times for its thrice-yearly critics’ tastings, but has not shared its belief with customers for fear it will add yet more mystique to wine.

“Our first choice is a fruit day,” said Pierpaolo Petrassi, Tesco’s senior product development manager. “We seek to avoid root and leaf days. It may be a little step beyond what consumers can comprehend. We have so many other things to educate consumers about. So many remain confused about screw caps, for example. We don’t want to make it more complicated.”

Jo Ahearne, winemaker for Marks & Spencer, became convinced of the theory when she sampled more than 140 wines over two days. “Before the tasting, I was really unconvinced, but the difference between the days was so obvious I was completely blown away.” The Guardian tested the theory this week and tasted the same wines on Tuesday evening, a leaf day, then again on Thursday evening, a fruit day. Five out of seven bottles showed a marked improvement.

“I was sceptical but I think the evidence was overwhelming,” said David Motion, the London wine merchant who hosted the tasting. “I live in the city and don’t think much about nature but it is clear it has an influence. The cosmos is forcing its way in.”

In other quarters, doubts remain. Waitrose’s wine department has investigated the idea and cannot see a correlation. Many scientists have little time for biodynamic wine, pointing out that the movement’s guru, Rudolf Steiner, claimed to have conceived the concept after consulting telepathically with spirits beyond the realm of the material world. Among his other works are claims that the human race is as old as the Earth and descended from creatures with jelly-like bodies, and a belief that men’s passions seep into the Earth’s interior, where they trigger earthquakes and volcanoes.

Biodynamic winemaking is well established in France, Germany and the USA, and it mostly means avoiding chemical fertilisers and pesticides and encouraging biodiversity.

It also involves spraying the vines with preparations which sound more like witches’ potions than agricultural aids. One involves fermenting cow manure in a cow horn, buried underground over winter. In another, oak bark is fermented in the skull of a domestic animal.
The wine week

The biodynamic drinking forecast for the next seven days:

With most wines showing best on fruit and flower days, drinkers face a tricky weekend. From 8am today until 10pm tomorrow is a root day. Flower day starts at 11pm tomorrow. In the next week, the best drinking time looks to be from 8pm on Wednesday until 11am on Thursday and from 6pm on Friday and throughout Saturday – both fruit periods. Lunchtime on Wednesday looks the worst time for wine.

The second, broken up and the process of crushing, fruits of some oxidation of vitamins, destroyed by the enemy;

Third, some kind of fruit nutrients (such as cellulose) is missing, the overall nutrition will be the role of a negative impact;

Fourth, in the juice production process, there is some additives, are bound to affect the nutritional quality of fruit juices, such as sweeteners, preservatives, so beautiful coagulator juice to prevent discoloration of additives such as fruit juice;

Fifth, the heating of the sterilization method, will also damage the nutritional content of fruit. Therefore, can the people to eat fresh fruit, the whole fruit is always on the best nutrition choices.

This is usually fresh fruit juice, without high temperature sterilization, basic and no sugar and sweeteners, preservatives, nutrients better preserved. This juice must be preserved at low temperature, and in a short period of time drinking, a very short shelf life because of the market on rare.

2. Pure fruit juice.

Generally use the carton or glass bottles, plastic bottles, ambient temperature storage time than half a year. This fruit juice, most of them are Made with fruit production, fruit juice concentrate add water, recovery to the original juice concentration, after an instant high-temperature sterilization treatment. Nutrients, especially vitamins, has been the loss of fruit flavor is also a slight change. This concentration of fruit juice, and freshly squeezed fruit juices, should be the same, or at least similar.

3. Concentrated fruit juice.

Many with glass bottles, or plastic bottles, kept at room temperature longer. This juice contains more sugar, and additives, will be marked with tags on, drinking at the time of dilution. Fruit juice concentrates and easy to carry, sweetness is generally higher, can be self-taste.

4. Fruit juice drinks.

Steam containing fruit juice beverages, fruit juice and non-steam beverages, have a lot of varieties, fruit juice content is not the same.
