To estimate the possibility of wine-making with Korean dried persimmon, its homogenized and filtered solution was fermented at $15^{\circ}C$ and $25^{\circ}C$ for 12 weeks with Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Japan Alcoholic Beverage Association N0.7). Sugars of dried persimmon were mainly composed of 27.02% of glucose, 19.81% of fructose and 5.12% of mannose. In the fermentation at $25^{\circ}C$, glucose was almost completely consumed in 8 days, but fructose and mannose were consumed up to 64% and 74%, respectively, in the same period and were not utilized any more afterwards. In the fermentation at $15^{\circ}C$, 75% of glucose, 20% of fructose and 49% of mannose were consumed in 8 days and these sugars were continuously utilized for 12 weeks. Organic acids in the homogenized and filtered solution were levulinic acid (148.6 mg%), 4-methylvaleric acid (73.5 mg%), oxalic acid (28.7 mg%), acetic acid (8.5 mg%), N-butyric acid (8.4 mg%) and succinic acid (6.7 mg%). Irrespective of fermentation temperature, levulinic acid rapidly reduced according to progression of fermentation. Oxalic acid, N-butyric acid and succinic acid decreased at 2nd day of fermentation, and then increased at 4th and 6th days and subsequently decreased again under the levels of the solution. Acetic acid and 4-methylvaleric acid increased with the proceeding of fermentation and at 12th week of fermentation these contents were more than those of the solution. The contents of total free amino acid significantly reduced at 2th day of fermentation and then increased to the level of the solution at 12th week irrespective of fermentation temperature. Ethanol content rapidly increased to the levels of 5.3(v/v) at $15^{\circ}C$ and 9.4%(v/v) at $25^{\circ}C$ to 8th day after fermentation, but at 12th week its content was 14.5%(v/v) at $15^{\circ}C$ and 9.4%(v/v) at $25^{\circ}C$. The higher alcohots identified were 2-methyl-l-propanol, 3-methyl-ibutanol, 2-methyl-l-butanol and 2-methyl-2-propanol and the range of those contents was from 0.001% (v/v) to 0.06%(v/v). The color of the wine fermented at $15^{\circ}C$ was slightly superior but flavor and taste were slightly superior in the wine fermented at $25^{\circ}C$.

The efforts were made to develop persimmon leaf beverages on the basis of the results of sensory evaluation. The result of sensory evaluation for the development of persimmon leaf beverages showed that when the concentration of extracts was 10%, the aroma and flavor of persimmon leaves was best. The optimum concentration of sugar was 4.5% and apple juice was 15%. The change of pH had the tendency to keep stable range(3.82-3.71) during the period of 30 days and free-sugar had little change according to the temperature and time of preservation. The preservation of the change of ascorbic acid revealed that the range of decrease in the case of preservation at $4^{\circ}C$ was a bit narrower than in the case of preservation at $25^{\circ}C$. Nonvolatile organic acids were four kinds of acids, oxalic acid, levulinic acid, malic acid, and citric acid, among which levulinic acid was on the increase for the first 10 days during the preservation period and then on the decrease regardless of the temperature of preservation. The browning of beverages was on the slight increase.

Even though the saps have been consumed as beverage in Korea for a very long period of time, a little research has been conducted on the chemical composition. We determined mineral, free sugar, composition amino acids and nucleotides in the sap of Gorosoe(Acer mono Max.) and Sugar Maple(Pseudo-sieboldianum Kom.) collected from Sancheong, Kurye and Hamyang. The contents of solid, crude protein and ash were 1.1~3.3%, 0.03~0.12% and 0.02~0.05% in the sap of Gorosoe and Sugar Maple, respectively. The detectable nucleotides were CMP, UMP, IMP, GMP, AMP and hypoxanthine. Free sugar that we determined in the sap of Gorosoe and Sugar Maple were sucrose, fructose and glucose, but maltose was not detected. The chief component of saccharides in the sap was sugar and ranged from 7.1 to 36.6g/L. Especially, the sucrose contents in the sap of Gorosoe and Sugar Maple from Hamyang were higher 3.7 and 2.2 times than those from the other samples. The prominent minerals in the sap were calcium and potassium. The calcium concentration was ranged from 99.0~153.3mg/L in the sap of Gorosoe and was ranged from 21.2~32.4mg/L in that of sugar maple. The sap of Gorosoe and Sugar Maple were composed of 18 and 15 kinds of amino acid respectively, and the total contents of amino acid were in the range of 0.7~29.3mg%. The major amino acids in the sap of Gorosoe were taurine, serine, glutamic acid and aspartic acid in decreasing order. Taurine contents in the sap of Gorosoe and Sugar Maple was found to be the dominant amino acid.

This study was performed for obtaining optimal extraction conditions to produce peach liqueur containing chitosan. Alcohol content of unsliced fruits was the largest recording 30% after extracting for 8 weeks and those of fruits sliced into four pieces were high recording around 28% after extracting for $6{\sim}8$ weeks. Sugar content was $11{\sim}13^{\circ}Brix$, total acidity was around 0.2% and pH was about 4.8. While soluble solids content was around 2.8% in unsliced fruits with a little change of the content, those of fruits sliced into four pieces were ranged from 2.8% to 3.1% and showing a tendency that longer extraction time increased the content. Brownness of unsliced fruits and fruits sliced into four pieces were $0.33{\sim}0.54$ and $0.56{\sim}0.73$ respectively. Total phenol content showed a similar tendency with brownness and the total phenol content of sliced fruits was higher than that of unsliced fruits by only around 0.2 mg%. When peach liqueur was made by extracting unsliced fruits massively by following conditions set above, methanol content grew with longer extraction time but the difference was not significant and the content was detected to be extremely small recording about 50 ppb. Among organic acids, oxalic, malic and citric acids were found, and fructose, glucose, sucrose and maltose were detected as free sugars. In conclusion, extracting unsliced fruits for 8 weeks as extraction conditions showed an excellent quality in overall for peach liqueur containing chitosan.
