Application in tea beverages
Studies have shown that in the process of sterilization and storage of tea beverages with added sucrose, the color of tea beverages becomes darker, and the content of tea polyphenols, catechins, amino acids and caffeine decreases, resulting in a decrease in sensory quality. By replacing sucrose with stevia, the browning of the beverage sterilization process is significantly reduced, which improves the shelf life and stability of the beverage and enhances the consumer's desire to purchase.
In addition, based on a large population, Southeast Asia has strong consumer power. Due to the influence of consumer preferences, the market demand for tea drinks in Southeast Asia is increasing, and tea drinks with stevia added are bound to become market trends.
Consumer preference change
Due to health considerations and current international trends, consumers are more inclined to low-sugar drinks, and the emphasis on healthy eating has gradually deepened. Low-sugar products are often more popular when the taste meets demand, which provides an opportunity for the development of the stevia beverage market.
Drink taste change
Beverage manufacturers use stevia, originally to reduce the sugar content, thus attracting more consumers concerned about health problems, but if the effect of reducing sugar is not obvious, it may not attract these consumers, but will lose some consumption. For the manufacturer, the formulation is difficult to modulate, which is the challenge. For the entire industry, market drivers will be affected.
