If such a drop is instantaneously dried, materials. 30 the water component is evaporated from the combined (b) Description of the prior art body of water and water-soluble material and at the same time the water-soluble material is solidified by dry It has been hitherto taken for granted that it is not ing and forms a coating surrounding the alcohol whereby possible to remove only water from a solution of alcohol the alcohol is prevented from being evaporated and is and water, because the alcohol is lower in boiling point 35 held within the coating. and higher in volatility in comparison with water. Thus, it becomes possible to remove only the water SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION from an alcohol-aqueous solution, and an alcohol-con taining solid product such as powder or the like can be According to this invention however, solid matter such manufactured easily and economically. It will be under as a powder or the like containing alcohol can be mass 40 stood that in this operation the relative quantity of the produced by simple technical steps and because the prod three components of alcohol, water and water-soluble uct obtained is solid, it can be widely used in foodstuffs, material, and the qualitative condition such as vis medicines, confectionery or the like. cosity, solubility or the like of the water-soluble material According to the process of this invention, a solution 45 have a natural relationship and a certain permissable is formed of a mixture of alcohol, water and a water-solu range thereof. ble material, the water soluble material being present in An important condition in the process of the inven an amount more than 70% by weight as compared to the tion, is that the total amount of the water-soluble ma water and more than an equal amount by weight as com terial component is above 70% as compared to the water pared to the alcohol, the solution is spray-dried at the least 50 and this has been confirmed by various experiments and possible temperature, and there is obtained a solid product will be explained with reference to the experimental ex in which almost all of the water is removed and the alco amples as follows. hol is covered with and held in the water-soluble material. The water-soluble material in this invention may be EXPERIMENTAL, EXAMPLE 1. gelatin or one or more modified starches which are easily 55 water-soluble such as "mizuame," i.e. starch converted In this experimental example gelatin and one powdered syrup, dextrin, gelatinized oxidized starch, ester starch, starch converted syrup (which will be called “starch con ether starch or the like or a mixture of the modified verted powder' hereafter) are used as the water-soluble starches and gelatin. component and ethyl alcohol is used as the alcohol com The alcohol component of the solution may be an alco 60 ponent.

If, in this case, the alcoholic has the ratio of alcohol to water as shown in the follow beverage contains a saccharide, protein, salt or the like, ing table, respective mixtures each comprising powder the amount of the water-soluble material to be added can gelatin and starch converted powder in a mixing ratio be accordingly decreased. Namely, it is sufficient if the of 1:1, are adde and dissolved while being agitated in a total amount of these materials previously contained in the 65 mixing ratio of 130%, 90%, 70%, 50% and 30% in alcoholic beverage and the water-soluble material which is relation to the amount of water. Thereafter, each of to be added exceeds 70% by weight of the water compo the solutions is heated to 70° C. within a tightly closed nent. container, without causing volatilization of the alcohol, The mechanism wherein only the water can be removed and is then spray-dried in a drying chamber at a tem while there remains the alcohol, which has a lower boiling 70 perature of 75° C. As a result thereof, there can be pro point than water, is presumed to be achieved in the process duced alcohol-containing powders as shown in the fol of the invention as follows: Namely, if alcohol and water lowing table. 3,786,159 3. 4.

Even better – do you want to rid yourself of the cravings you have for sugar-laden foods? Would you like to be able to resist the temptations of junk food? Regardless of the reasons why you might consider a 31-day detox – you will feel GREAT if you partake! Join me by registering before Jan. 1 at sphealth.org/sugarchallenge. WHY JOIN? Added sugar (not to be confused with natural sugars found in wholesome foods) is the single biggest diet issue in most people’s lives. If you’re like most people, you’re consuming far more added sugar than the recommended daily amount – and it seriously affecting your health. Taking control and being in control is key! WHO SHOULD JOIN? EVERYONE can benefit from a sugar challenge – especially after holidays celebrations and indulgence. Sugar has been called the tobacco of the new century and the average American consumes three times the maximum daily recommended amount (6 to 9 tsp/day is recommended and we are consuming over 22 tsp/day. WHOA!) WHAT IS THE SUGAR CHALLENGE? Unless all of your meals are made by scratch and you’re aware of every ingredient going into your meals, you can be sure that over half of the normal grocery store fare has added sugar. Sure…it’s easy to note that foods like soda, cookies have sugar – but sugar is FLAVOR and also used to increase shelf life.
