The bubbles in carbonated drinks like Sprite are caused by carbon dioxide (CO2). Manufacturers inject high pressure carbon dioxide gas into the drink during production.
In general, the steps to produce Sprite are as follows:
1. Preparation of syrup: Mix water with sugar, and add citric acid and other flavoring agent to form syrup.
2. Carbonization: The syrup is placed in the carbonization chamber, and it is dissolved into the liquid by injecting high pressure carbon dioxide gas. This process increases the number of carbon dioxide molecules dissolved in the liquid, creating a higher pressure.
3. Filling: The syrup will be filled into the bottle or jar after carbonization, and maintain a certain pressure when closing the container.
When you open the cap of the Sprite bottle, the internal pressure is reduced, which allows the dissolved carbon dioxide gas in the bottle to escape quickly. This rapid release results in the formation of bubbles and bubbles.
It is worth mentioning that carbon dioxide has an important impact on the taste and texture of beverages. It gives Sprite a refreshing taste and adds vitality and flavor to the drink.
The gas in Sprite is filled with carbon dioxide gas under certain conditions.
Sprite is made of carbon dioxide in liquid drinks, its main ingredients are sugar, color, spices, etc., in the hot summer, people commonly used to relieve the summer heat, is the daily food on the table.
