Microbial and economical studies of Jamun beverages prepared by alternative sweeteners

Jamun nectar and RTS prepared from alternative sweeteners were evaluated through microbial counts and economical analysis. The experimental material consisted of 15 treatments of alternative sweeteners and one treatment of 100% sugar combination each for nectar and RTS. The treatments were replicated three times in Completely Randomized Design (CRD). In the experiment alternative sweeteners like Erythrtol, Stevia and Equal were used for the preparation jamun nectar and RTS beverages.
