【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかしながら、前記ペットボトル詰めとか瓶詰め、缶詰めされた茶飲料もしくはコーヒー、紅茶類は流通性と保管性を高めるとともに見映え等の商品価値を維持するために、乳化剤とか安息香酸等の防腐剤、ｐＨ調整剤、ビタミン類を添加しているのが通例であり、人体が必要とする天然の微量元素（ミネラル）が含まれておらず、健康飲料用として必ずしも満足するものが得られていないという課題がある。特に近時は天然に存在する微量元素の重要性が見直されている現状にある。
【００１０】
他方で海水は微量元素を多く含んでおり、飲料に添加する塩として優れているが、海洋汚染の進んだ現代では海水中の表層水はそのままでは飲用に供することはできない。そこで前記したように海洋深層水を脱塩処理した飲料水が近時では多く利用されているが、脱塩作業時に各種の栄養塩類及び微量元素等のミネラル成分の多くが除去されてしまうことが多く、前記表１中の海洋深層水の持つミネラルバランスを実現しているとはいい難いという問題がある。
【００１１】
そこで本発明はこのような従来の茶・コーヒー・紅茶等の抽出飲料が有している課題を解消して、海洋深層水を使用したことによって多くの天然微量元素（ミネラル）を含み、かつ該海洋深層水の持つミネラルバランスを忠実に再現した抽出飲料を得ることを目的とするものである。
【００１２】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明は上記目的を達成するために、海洋深層水の脱塩水を用いて、茶・コーヒー等の抽出飲料を抽出し、この抽出飲料に海洋深層水から製造したにがり液を添加した海洋深層水を利用した抽出飲料を提供する。そして、硬度を３００〜２０の範囲に調節している。
【００１６】
かかる海洋深層水を利用した抽出飲料によれば、海洋深層水の濃縮水は原水よりも多量の各種元素成分を含有しており、にがり液中にもカリウム、マグネシウム、銅、亜鉛その他の多くの微量元素を含有しているため、硫酸カルシウムの添加にも伴って海洋深層水に含まれているミネラル成分を有効に生かして該海洋深層水のミネラルバランスを忠実に再現することができるとともに適当な硬度を有して健康飲料としても好ましい抽出飲料を得ることができる。更に飲料水に添加する海洋深層水の原水と、海洋深層水の濃縮水と、にがり液及び硫酸カルシウムの添加量を調節することにより、得られた抽出飲料の硬度を３００〜２０の範囲内で調節して、抽出飲料として最適の硬度を選択することが可能となる。
【００１７】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下図面に基づいて本発明にかかる海洋深層水を利用した抽出飲料の具体的な実施形態を説明する。本発明の抽出飲料は、海洋深層水の脱塩水と鉱泉水、又は海洋深層水の脱塩水と水道水、或いは海洋深層水の脱塩水のみを用いて、茶・コーヒー等の抽出を行い、この抽出液を海洋深層水の脱塩水，鉱泉水，水道水の何れか一種又は複数の水により希釈して作製したこと、及び飲料水に対して海洋深層水の原水，脱塩水を得た残りの海洋深層水の濃縮水，海洋深層水から製造したにがり液，海洋深層水から析出した硫酸カルシウムの何れか一種又は複数種を添加して撹拌混合により得た硬度３００〜２０の均質化された水を用いて茶・コーヒー等の抽出を行ったことを特徴とするものである。
【００１８】
前記飲料水とは、海洋深層水の脱塩水，鉱泉水，水道水の何れか一種又は複数の水を用いる。海洋深層水の脱塩水とは、海洋深層水をイオン交換法，逆浸透膜法もしくは荷電モザイク膜法等の公知の方法により脱塩処理した水である。鉱泉水とは各地の山岳水とか渓谷水及び各土地の名水と呼ばれる水である。水道水は水道法による水質基準に適合した飲用適の水を指しており、本実施形態では水道水をストレーナで濾過したもの、イオン交換法、荷電モザイク膜法等の公知の方法により純水に近づけたものを用いる。
【００１９】
図１は本実施形態にかかる抽出飲料の製造工程例を示すフロー図であり、飲料水として海洋深層水の脱塩水を用いた例である。先ずステップ１で海面下２００メートル以深の深海から取水した海洋深層水を用意し、ステップ２で該海洋深層水を浸透膜を用いた濾過を行って脱塩処理することによりステップ３で脱塩水を得て、ステップ４で該脱塩水を調合タンク内に入れる。ステップ５では前記ステップ２での濾過によって脱塩水を得た残りの海洋深層水を利用して濃縮水を得て、ステップ６では濃縮水を更に濃縮してステップ７でにがり液を得るとともに、ステップ８で硫酸カルシウムを析出させる。そして、得られた濃縮水，にがり液，硫酸カルシウムの何れか一種又は複数種を所定の配合割合で上記ステップ４の調合タンク内に入れる。また、別途にステップ９でビタミンＣ等の副原料を用意してステップ４の調合タンク内に入れ、脱塩水とにがり液及び硫酸カルシウムとともに撹拌混合して均質化された飲料を得る。

一般に硬度とは水のカルシウムイオン・マグネシウムイオンを含有する程度を指しており、硬度３００〜２０の飲料が本発明の抽出飲料として最適の硬度となっている。なお、硬度は飲料水や抽出飲料に添加する海洋深層水の原水，海洋深層水の濃縮水，海洋深層水から製造したにがり液，硫酸カルシウムの添加量によって上記硬度３００〜２０の範囲に調節することが可能である。
【００３２】
本発明で採用した海洋深層水は、室戸岬沖の水深３２０メートル地点から取水した海水であり、深層水中に含まれている三態窒素のうち、アンモニア態窒素，亜硝酸態窒素はごく僅かであり、生物に与える影響は小さく、硝酸態窒素についても表層部では微量であったが、水深が増加するにつれて濃度が高まり、水深２００メートル以深の水中での無機溶存態窒素の９５％以上が硝酸態窒素で２４μＭ存在している。その他リン酸態リンが１．７μＭ、珪酸態珪素が４１μＭ溶存しており、いずれも表層部の５〜１０倍以上の栄養塩濃度を有している。
【００３３】
海洋深層水中に含まれている生体の発育上で必須の天然元素とは、Ｆｅ（鉄）、Ｉ（沃素）、Ｃｕ（銅）、Ｍｎ（マンガン）、Ｚｎ（亜鉛）、Ｃｏ（コバルト）、Ｍｏ（モリブデン）、Ｓｅ（セレン）、Ｃｒ（クロム）、Ｓｎ（スズ）、Ｖ（バナジウム）、Ｆ（フッ素）、Ｓｉ（ケイ素）、Ｎｉ（ニッケル）、Ａｓ（ヒ素）の１５元素であり、これらの元素が海洋深層水に全てバランス良く含まれていることが大きな特徴となっている。従って海洋深層水は海洋生物の生長とか増殖に対しても大きな潜在能力を秘めた海水であるといえる。このような潜在能力は、近年メダイやコンブ、深海サンゴ等の養殖実験に利用されて大きな成果を上げていることからも実証されている。特に前記ノルウエー沖の海洋深層水は、フィヨルド深層水と呼ばれてサケ養殖に適していることが報告されている。
【００３４】
海洋深層水中の生菌数は、前記表１中に示したように表層水中のそれと比較して、１桁又はそれ以上少なくなっており、しかも病原生物はほとんど含まれていないため、海水に由来する魚病菌による病気に関する惧れは全くなく、抽出飲料に採用した際の安全性が極めて高いという大きな特徴がある。本発明はこのような海洋深層水に含まれている天然元素を抽出飲料に採り入れることによって、生体の発育を促進するという従来の茶・コーヒー等の抽出飲料では実現することができない特性を持つ抽出飲料を提供することができる。
【００３５】
【発明の効果】
以上詳細に説明したように、本発明によれば、海洋深層水を脱塩処理した際に除去される各種の栄養塩類及び微量元素等のミネラル成分の多くが補給され、特に海洋深層水の濃縮水は原水よりも多量の各種元素成分を含有しているとともに、にがり液中にもカリウム，マグネシウム，カルシウム，銅，亜鉛その他の多くの微量元素を含有しているため、硫酸カルシウムの添加に伴って硬度３００〜２０の均質化された水が得られるとともに海洋深層水に含まれているミネラル成分を有効に生かすとともに海洋深層水のミネラルバランスを忠実に再現した抽出飲料が得られる。また、人体に必須の塩として海水中の天然塩が微量元素を多く含んでおり、抽出飲料に添加する塩として最適であって健康飲料としても好適である。
【００３６】
更に飲料水に添加する海洋深層水の原水と、海洋深層水の濃縮水と、にがり液及び硫酸カルシウムの添加量を調節することにより、得られた抽出飲料の硬度を３００〜２０の範囲内で調節して、茶・コーヒー等の抽出飲料として最適の硬度を選択することが可能となる。
【００３７】
従って本発明によれば、飲料水に海洋深層水の原水，脱塩水を得た残りの海洋深層水の濃縮水，海洋深層水から製造したにがり液，海洋深層水から析出した硫酸カルシウムの何れか一種又は複数種を添加したことによって多くの天然微量元素を含み、かつ該海洋深層水の持つミネラルバランスを再現したことによって健康飲料として好適な抽出飲料を得ることができる。

【The invention's effect】
As described above in detail, according to the present invention, mineral components such as various nutrients and trace elements that are removed when the deep sea water is desalted are replenished, and particularly, the deep sea water is concentrated. Water contains a larger amount of various elemental components than raw water, and the bittern contains potassium, magnesium, calcium, copper, zinc, and many other trace elements. As a result, a homogenized water having a hardness of 300 to 20 is obtained, and a mineral beverage contained in the deep sea water is effectively utilized, and an extracted beverage faithfully reproducing the mineral balance of the deep sea water is obtained. In addition, natural salt in seawater contains a large amount of trace elements as an essential salt for the human body, and is optimal as a salt to be added to an extracted beverage and also suitable as a health drink.
