摘要

A composition which permits protein fortification of citrus juices, particularly orange juice, or beverages containing citrus juices, to be carried out without separation of the juice or beverage and the rapid development of a clear or nearly clear liquid layer on top of the juice or beverage, comprises a soy protein product having a protein content of at least about 60 wt% (N x 6.25), preferably at least about 90 wt%, and preferably at least about 100 wt%, which is completely soluble in water at an acid pH value of less than about 4.4 and which is heat stable in aqueous solution, and at least one of at least one calcium salt and at least one organic acid.
