The present investigation entitled “Aonla and Moringa beverage and its keeping quality during storage” was carried out due to its importance for development of processed products. The work was carried out in the Fruit Technology Laboratory at the Department of Horticulture, Chaudhary Charan Singh Haryana Agricultural University, Hisar. Fruit beverages are becoming more popular in comparison to synthetic beverages/drinks since they are more nutritious. Blending aonla juice with Moringa, beetroot and other fruits and veggies, can improve the therapeutic and nutritive value of aonla, resulting in an excellent healthy drink with good taste and flavour. Processed products can help to increase consumer preference for natural immune booster ingredients products RTS made with 50:25:25 aonla juice, moringa extract and beet root was found to keep colour, flavour, taste and other quality characteristics the best for three months of room temperature storage, followed by RTS made with 25:75 aonla juice and moringa extract.
