Zusammenfassung:The invention provides a process for the preparation of an emulsion concentrate for soft drinks comprising emulsifying in an aqueous extract of crushed defatted seeds from edible fruit, a flavour mixture comprising an essential oil of the peel of least one citrus fruit and/or an organoleptically neutral oil. Citrus fruit is preferred. Preferably the oil/solids ratio is from 1.5 : 1 to 5 : 1. Preferably the citrus fruit seeds comprise orange (Citrus aurantium) seeds and/or grapefruit (Citrus paradisi) seeds. The emulsion concentrate may further comprise estergum, damar resin and/or sucrose diacetyl hexaisobuturate. Preferably the aqueous phase of the emulsion concentrate is adjusted to a pH between 2.5 and 6, more preferably by the addition of citric acid. The invention further provides an emulsion concentrate so prepared as well as a soft drink obtainable by diluting the emulsion concentrate.
