Abstract
A method of producing a thickened carbonated beverage packed in a container, comprising: mixing an aqueous solution containing a first thickening agent and having a temperature of 0 to 35° C. with a second thickening agent insoluble in water in a temperature range of 0 to 35° C. but soluble in water at a temperature of 60° C. or more to obtain a stock liquid with the second thickening agent dispersed in the solution; dissolving carbon dioxide gas in the stock liquid to obtain a carbonated aqueous solution; filling a container with the carbonated aqueous solution and sealing the container to obtain the carbonated aqueous solution packed in the container; and heating the carbonated aqueous solution packed in the container such that the carbonated aqueous solution has a temperature of 60° C. or more to dissolve the second thickening agent in the solution.
