Abstract

Method or process in which the size of de-juiced natural citrus fiber is very significantly reduced by particularly defined milling operations including a chopping step and a grinding step so that 90% or more of the citrus fiber feedstock has a particle size below about 50 microns, preferably 30 microns, and in which the size-reduced fiber is then mixed into a juice or juice-based beverage. The preferred process pre-treats the feedstock by means of a special separator to improve the flavor.
