Patent abstract

Citrus juice beverages having an oil soluble flavor antioxidant added thereto are provided. A tocopherol antioxidant, other than alpha-tocopherol, is added to a citrus juice beverage, such as orange juice, to preserve the flavor sensory attributes of stored juice without deteriorating the initial flavor sensory attributes of the juice.
