Formulation and Evaluation of Strawberry Flavored Cotton Seed Milk

The goal of the research was to create flavoured milk by blending cotton seed milk with strawberry.
Made from unfermented milk, flavoured milk is a ready-to-drink food item. Cotton seed milk is a
premium product that hasn't lost its appeal as a culinary item. Cotton seed milk is a protein and lipid-rich
extract made from cotton seeds. It can be provided to the world's protein-energy starved people because
it is high in protein. Along with improving blood circulation and digestion, it also aids in the removal of
bad cholesterol, blood pressure maintenance, healing, and cancer prevention. The strawberry, or Fragaria
x ananassa, is an important fruit crop and a member of the Rosaceae family. Another frequent name for it
is Garden Strawberry. It is a well-liked fruit that is grown extensively in temperate regions of the world,
including Europe, the US, and India. Strawberry pulp and cotton seed milk were used to make the
flavoured milk in the following concentrations: 90:10 (T1), 80:20 (T2), and 70:30 (T3). The 9-point hedonic
scale was used for the sensory evaluation. Treatments T1, T2, and T3 yielded flavour-infused cotton seed
milk with overall acceptance scores of 7.33, 7.68, and 8.67, respectively. The most widely accepted was
then used for microbiological, physico-chemical, and nutritional investigation.
