Hi All,
We are developing a RTD alcoholic cocktail in can. Normally products like that are just pasteurised as combination of low pH and alcohol does the job. But NPD we are looking at has much higher pH >5.
I have seen some studies suggesting that >6% alcohol stops c bot.
So my question is, is alcohol alone abv >6% an acceptable hurdle, does anyone have any experience with that in the UK, and with retailers?
thanks!
