Description A beverage is a liquid, which is specifically prepared for human consumption, which is positively associated with energy intake and body mass index. Fruit and vegetable beverages are rich sources of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants as compared to synthetic beverages. A ready to serve beverage (RTS) from fruits and vegetables was prepared in two variations by optimizing the levels of fruit and vegetable pulp, salt and acidity (lemon juice) with (Fruit and vegetable beverage 1 - FVB 1) and without addition of sugar (fruit and vegetable beverage 2 - FVB 2). The beverages prepared (FVB 1 & FVB 2) were analyzed for their physico-chemical and nutritional parameters, antioxidant assay, microbial load and storage stability. Study on physico-chemical and nutritional parameters revealed a higher total soluble solids, titratable acidity, sugars, ascorbic acid in FVB 1 12 ± 0; 0.25 ± 0.001; 9.34 ± 0.098; 2.30 ± 0.015) compared to FVB 2 (6 ± 0; 0.26 ± 0.012; 3.14 ± 0.057; 2.28 ± 0.015). The main significance of this present study is to prepare RTS beverage from fruit and vegetable blend, which is beneficial for different age groups of people, who are suffering from malnutrition.
