摘要
The present invention comprises a composition of matter consisting essentially of citric acid and one or more calcium compounds selected from the group consisting of calcium hydroxide, calcium carbonate and calcium oxide. The composition of matter is preferably a substantially dry mixture which may be used, for example, as a powder for making an "instant" beverage of potable liquid. A preferred calcium compound/citric acid molar ratio in the composition of matter of the present invention is between about 0.6 and about 1.5. In a most preferred embodiment, the composition of matter of the present invention consists essentially of calcium hydroxide and citric acid having a calcium compound/citric acid or calcium hydroxide/citric acid molar ratio of about 1.25. The composition of matter of the present invention has a utility demostrated by dissolution in water to form a liquid dietary calcium supplement comprising soluble calcium citrate. This composition of matter may comprise one or more of a flavorant, lubricant, sweetener or colorant usable to maintain a powdery texture or to enhance the flavor of a beverage prepared therefrom.
