ICAR-Central Institute for Research on Goats (CIRG)Background:
Traditional dairy and cereal-based beverages often lack balanced nutrition, digestibility, and probiotic benefits. This innovation combines fermented goat milk and millet to enhance gut health, provide essential nutrients, and offer a naturally probiotic, gluten-free alternative to conventional drinks. It addresses malnutrition, lactose intolerance, and the need for functional beverages with improved shelf life and sensory appeal. For limiting the technical challenges in fermented milk-millet fusion beverage, the present work was done.
Technology Details:
Fermentation enhances flavors, extends shelf life, and reduces lactose, making it suitable for lactoseintolerant individuals. It can be a good approach for the value addition of goat milk at household or industrial level. The combination of goat milk and millet provides a balanced mix of protein, fiber, vitamins, and minerals, offering a healthier, gluten-free alternative to traditional dairy or cereal-based drinks, his beverage blends fermented milk with nutrient-rich millet, easily digestible drink that supports gut health and boosts nutrition.
