Abstract

The study on sensory evaluation and consumer acceptability of two formulas of ready-to-drink flower products included damask rose beverage and water lily beverage were carried out. One hundred target consumers (20% male and 80% female) participated in this study. Acceptance testing for two formulas of flower beverage was evaluated by panel test. The sensory evaluation of two formula beverages showed that the participants preferred the water lily flower beverage (57%) more than the damask rose flower beverage (43%). The hedonic scores of freshness attribute of water lily flower beverage were significantly higher than damask rose flower beverage (P<0.05). The result of the JAR scale analysis suggested that the freshness attribute should be increased in both product formulas. The study on the effects of demographic characteristics on product acceptance impressed that the age and income factors affected the product acceptance. For damask rose beverage, age and income factors had the impact on color and sweetness attributes, respectively. While, only age factor affected the product acceptance of water lily flower beverage in terms of flower fragrance, sweetness, freshness, and overall liking attributes.
