Fruit Nectars
Nectars with fruit puree, juice, sugar, and citric acid achieve good texture and stable viscosity with 0.2–0.8% tara gum. Stability at low pH makes it ideal for acidic fruit beverages.
Chocolate Beverages
Tara gum + carrageenan stabilizes chocolate syrup and powdered chocolate mix, preventing cocoa particle settling.
Diet Drinks
Useful for thickening without sugar. As a dietary fiber with negligible calories, it adds body without adding calories.
Functional Benefits
Adds viscosity for mouthfeel, suspends particles against sedimentation, clarifies solutions, stabilizes emulsions in cloudy drinks. Neutral taste and colorless dissolution — no flavor impact.
