(A) 0.08-0.5 mass% of nonpolymer catechins,n n n (B) the non-epitaxial ratio of nonpolymeric catechins is 5-25 mass%,n n n (C) the ratio of the gallate retention of nonpolymeric catechins is 5-95 mass%,n n n (D) pH is 2.5-5.1,n n n (E) Green tea drink in the container containing 0.0001-20 mass% of 1 or more types chosen from fructose, glucose, sucrose, fructose glucose liquid sugar, and glucose fructose liquid sugar.n n n It is possible to provide a green tea beverage in a container containing a high concentration of non-polymeric catechins suitable for long-term preservation despite having a sweetness and a moderate sweetness and sour taste without compromising flavor. |
