Abstract

In this study, a non-dairy beverages based on almond, coconut and soy milk was produced in combination with runner bean flour in both germinated and non-germinated states on the physicochemical and sensory properties of the samples was investigated. To prepare vegetable milk, soy beans, almonds and coconuts (20, 25 and 25 g, respectively) are soaked in water at the ratio of 1:6, 1:4.2, and 1:4, respectively, for 12 h at room temperature and they were mixed in a mixer. All sprouted and unsprouted bean powders were mixed separately with 100 mL of vegetable milk to prepare sprouted and unsprouted soy, almond and coconut milk drinks in a weight of 6 g, and finally the drinks were evaluated in terms of chemical properties (acidity, pH, antioxidant capacity, and sugar), viscosity and Sensory acceptance was investigated. The results showed that the germination of runner beans increased the factors of acidity, TEAC, phenolic content and sensory properties and decreased pH. Increased acidity and decreased pH were higher in non-dairy beverage with germinated beans than in samples containing non-germinated beans. The highest viscosity in the sample of almond drink contained germinated and non-germinated beans. Almond milk drink containing sprouted beans and coconut milk drink containing sprouted beans had the highest sugar content. TEAC and phenolic content were higher in coconut milk samples containing germinated beans. The results of sensory properties also showed that beverage based on coconut milk containing germinated beans and almond milk containing germinated beans were more popular among consumers.
