Sensory evaluation method was used to develop a type jujube tea the organoleptic properties were evaluated with regard to the optimum sugar content, clarity, drinking temperature and fruit pulp content of the jujube tea. Clarified jujube tea extracted from 25% by weight of dry jujube fruits and 75% water was preferred to those from 15%, 20% and 30% jujube fruites although those from 20% and 30% were not significantly different at 5%level. In spite of the average acceptability score of cloudy jujube tea with 5% of added fruit pulp was not significantly different from that of clarified one, the more fruit pulp in the tea products the worse its acceptability. Cold jujube tea was preferred to warm and hot ones, but these were not significantly different.

In order to increase the antioxidant effect and preference of jujube-omija herbal sauce, we added ethanol extracts of 12 kinds of food and 12 kinds of medicinal herb to the sauce, and then evaluated the antioxidant activity and sensory characteristics. The antioxidant activity of the jujube-omija herbal sauces was greatly increased by the addition of ethanol extracts of foods such as green tea, mugwort, mint, lemon, leek, etc. and those of medicinal herbs such as ginseng. pine needle, the root of arrowroot, orange peel, etc.. Due to the high content of phenolic compounds, the ethanol extracts foods and medicinal herbs appeared to be responsible for high electron-donating ability and low hydroperoxide productivity. While the jujube-omija sauce with the extracts of green tea, mugwort, ginseng and pine needle were not preferred by the panels due to bitter taste and aroma, those of lemon, fruit of Chinese quince, orange peel, etc. were preferred with their sweet and a little sour taste and showed a high antioxidant activity. Especially, lemon juice was the best to increase the antioxidant activity and the preference of the jujube-omija herbal sauce.

Four different brands of commercial and a home-made jujube tea were analyzed for physicochemical properties (sugar content, acidity, color, viscosity, transparency, texture) and sensory characteristics by using 7-point scoring test from 18 experienced panel members. Also, the opinion of food and nutrition specialists on the commercial jujube teas were assessed using a questionnaire, which were hand-delivered to 530 subjects consisting of university students and faculties of Department of Food and Nutrition at 8 cities(Seoul, Incheon, Youngin. Taejon, Chungju, Taegu, Kwangiu, Pusan) in Korea and the complete data of 328 subjects were statistically analyzed using SPSS Program for Window. The questionnaire consisted of socio-demographics, frequency and occasion of purchasing, opinion of quality and improvement points, and sensory characteristics. Commercial jujube teas (3 different brand) were lower in sugar content, pH, transparency, color (Hunter L, a and b value), and viscosity than the home-made one, whereas only one brand was higher in viscosity and lower in transparency than home-made one. Also, overall preference for commercial jujube teas was significantly love. than that for home-made one (p＜0.05). Especially, the scores of overall preference for 3 commercial jujube teas (2.1-3.3) were much lower than that of home-made one (6.1). Points to be improved for commercial jujube teas were indicated as the amount of jujube (30.0%), taste (23.8%), sweetness (22.0%), and flavor (14.4%) in order. Sensory attributes showing positive correlations with overall preference of jujube tea were the taste(0.566), amount of jujube(0.449), and flavor(0.335).

This study was conducted to investigate the actual conditions of intake of Korean traditional beverages in 273 female university students in Seoul, Korea. The subjects of this study consisted of 128 food and nutrition majors and 145 non-majors. Questionnaires were administered to the subjects who had an average age of 20 years. Two-hundred and nineteen students (80.2%) lived with their parents. Regarding the type of beverages subjects often drink, coffee was the most preferred (51.3%) overall, and non-majors (4.1%) were shown to drink traditional beverages more often. Regarding preference for traditional beverages, most subjects (72.5%) responded that they liked their own traditional beverage. However, for frequency of intake of traditional beverages, 48.7% answered they do not drink any traditional beverages. The reasons why subjects like traditional beverages were taste (71.7%) and health (26.3%), and the type of traditional beverages they often drink were Yulmu tea (35.9%), Sik hae (30.8%), and Yuja tea (10.6%), in order. Regardless of major, ginseng tea, jujube tea, mulberry-leaf tea, Chinese matrimony vine tea, ssanghwa tea, ginger tea, and omija tea were found to be satisfactory traditional beverages. Therefore, due to the low intake frequency, preference, and satisfaction of traditional beverages, new traditional beverages that can meet the standards of female students should be immediately developed.

Green Tea consists of 15-30% catechins (a type of polyphenol), which act as super antioxidants, inhibitory action against aging process. Antioxidants fight radical-free oxygen, an agent which can begin the process of cancer by damaging essential body chemicals and harming DNA. This study was peformed to develop the elderly diet using Green Tea as an inhibitory action against aging process. Nokchaborijook (Baley gruel added rice powder and Green Tea) was manufactured by various levels of Green Tea(1, 4, 7%) and the grinding period(15, 30, 45 sec). The optimum levels of added Green Tea and grinding periods on Nokchaborijook were determined with the results of sensory evaluation by response surface methodology and analysis of composition. The Anti-oxidant Vitamin A, C, E and Flavonoid were increased with increased levels of Green Tea and grinding periods be decreased. As the levels of Green Tea and grinding periods were increased, the green color and penetrated force became stronger. Among the sensory attributes, Bitterness, Green Tea Flavor and Hashness were greater depending on increasing Green Tea. Jujube flavor was greater relying on decreasing Green Tea. Greenness and spreadability of particles were increased as both the amounts of Green Tea and the grinding period were increased. This result was used to determine the optimum conditions of adding levels of Green Tea and grinding periods. The optimum conditions of Nokchaborijook was established as adding of 5.8% Green Tea grinded for 15 seconds.
