Abstract

A fermented beverage and a preparation method are disclosed. The method uses ripened fruits and/or vegetables as raw materials. The method includes performing a natural ripening on a fruit and/or a vegetable at 15° C. to 30° C. for 5 days to 10 days to obtain a ripened fruit and/or vegetable; and inoculating lactic acid bacteria into the ripened fruit and/or vegetable, and performing a fermentation for 10 days to 30 days at 15° C. to 30° C. to obtain the fermented beverage. After 23 days of fermentation, the fermented beverage has a total flavonoid content up to 0.5 mg/mL to 2.0 mg/mL, which is beneficial to human health, a pH of 3.2 to 3.8 and a total titratable acidity of up to 12 mg/mL to 18 mg/mL. The fermented beverage requires a short fermentation cycle, which is beneficial to industrial production.
