PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce carbonic acid stimulation of carbonated beverage without making a negative effect on the flavor of the carbonated beverage.SOLUTION: A carbonic acid stimulation reducing agent of the carbonated beverage contains sugarcane extract as an active ingredient. The method for producing the carbonated beverage adds the carbonic acid stimulation reducing agent of the carbonated beverage containing the sugarcane extract as the active ingredient so that the content of the sugarcane extract is 0.00001-0.02 mass%. The stimulation by the carbonic acid of the carbonated beverage is reduced by adding the carbonic acid stimulation reducing agent, giving the impression to easily drink due to the carbonated beverage.COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT【課題】炭酸飲料の香味に悪影響を及ぼすことなく、炭酸飲料の炭酸刺激を低減する。【解決手段】甘蔗抽出物を有効成分とする炭酸飲料の炭酸刺激低減剤。および、甘蔗抽出物を有効成分とする炭酸飲料の炭酸刺激低減剤を甘蔗抽出物含有量が0.00001~0.02質量%となるよう添加することを特徴とする炭酸飲料の製造方法。本発明の炭酸刺激低減剤を添加することによって、炭酸飲料の炭酸による刺激を低減し、炭酸飲料により飲みやすい印象を与えることができる。【選択図】なし
