Abstract
Frozen tea mix concentrates which contain high levels of sugar and are flowable at freezer temperatures are disclosed. These tea mix concentrates comprise from about 0.5 to about 2% by weight tea solids and from about 40 to about 70% by weight of a sugar component. This sugar comprises a particular mixture of fructose and dextrose monosaccharides, sucrose, glucose-based di- and tri-saccharides selected from maltose, isomaltose, maltotriose, isomaltotriose and mixtures thereof, plus other polysaccharides commonly present in corn syrups. The tea mix concentrates also preferably include an edible acid to provide a lower pH (about 4 or less at 20.degree. C.), and a flavoring such as lemon.
