Beverage aromatizing straw / 2313260
Drinking straw has elongated tubular casing. There is predetermined amount of aromatizing concentrate within internal space of tubular casing, said aromatizing concentrate being formed as a plurality of solid spherical granules having diameter making from about 25% to about 75% the internal diameter of tubular casing, and have average diameter of from 2 mm to 3 mm. Granules are held within straw by means of filtering means formed as end caps, each having netted portion and cylindrical mounting part. Netted portion has perforations formed as elongated slots providing relatively unobstructed passage of liquid through casing, with width of slots making about 1 mm. Netted portion is generally configured as inwardly oriented cone. Granules are preferably formed from "nonpareil" type granules, each consisting of a number of concentric layers. Passage of liquid beverage induces gradual dissolving of granules and simultaneously releasing of active component into beverage during drinking.

Method for manufacturing dry microcapsulated drink (variants) / 2287305
The present innovation refers to drinks' concentrates based upon plant raw material, for example, tea raw material. By the first variant, the method deals with obtaining plant product as an extract followed by mixing it with a supplementary substance as gum arabic, and a dairy product as dry whole milk; while mixing it is necessary to add saccharose and water to obtain emulsion that contains 1-20 weight portions of gum arabic , 5-50 weight portions of saccharose, 0.5-5.0 weight portions of dry plant extract, 35.0-70.0 weight portions of dry whole milk and 97.0-408.3 weight% water. Then comes drying due to spraying at temperature not exceeding 70° C at developing microcapsules with membranes out of gum arabic. By the second variant this method deals with obtaining plant product as aqueous plant extract at the content of dry substances being 10-30 % followed by mixing it with additional substance and dairy product. Moreover, as additional and dairy product one should apply gum arabic and dry whole milk, correspondingly. While mixing it is necessary to add saccharose and water to obtain the mixture in the form of emulsion. The latter contains 1-20 weight portions gum arabic, 5-50 weight portions saccharose, 95.1-388.3 weight portions aqueous plant extract at the content of dry substances being 10-30%, 35.0-70.0 weight portions of dry whole milk and 95.1-388.0 weight portions of water followed by drying due to spraying at temperature not exceeding 70° C, at developing microcapsules with membranes out of gum arabic. Plant extract should be obtained out of the mixture of grasses and/or, roots, and/or inflorescences, and/or fruit that contains, at least, two components. The present innovation enables to obtain dry product as microcapsules, their membrane being out of natural polymer that provides the safety of lipids (fat) and biologically active substances.
