Zusammenfassung:PURPOSE:To enable the continuous production of a fermented fruit juice beverage good in flavor for a long period at a low cost by carrying out the fermentation of the fruit juice with a lactic acid bacterium, entrapped and immobilized in a gel of specific polysaccharides. CONSTITUTION:A lactic acid bacterium, entrapped and immobilized in a gel of polysaccharides containing at least either of starch phosphate and a salt thereof as an active ingredient is used to carry out the fermentation of a fruit juice. For example, a raw material fruit juice 3 is fed to a fermenter 2 having an immobilized lactic acid bacterium 1 such as a spherical shape as a fixed bed according to a batch method to perform the fermentation. As a result, the fruit juice at a low pH can be fermented with the lactic acid bacterium without regulating the pH and removing a fermentation inhibitor such as polyphenol. Furthermore, the fermentation rate of the lactic acid bacterium can be increased. Thereby, the fermented fruit juice can continuously be produced for a long period and the fermented fruit juice beverage good in flavor can simultaneously be produced at a low cost.
