Abstract This study aimed to develop and characterize mixed beverages (suchás) formulations based on organic apple juice and cardamom tea (F1= 50:50 vv−1, F2 = 60:40 vv−1 and F3 =70:30 vv−1). The formulation (F3) presented the highest total phenolic compounds content (31.79 mg EAG g-1), antioxidant activity (50.04 µg mL-1), total soluble solids (5.1 oBrix), acidity (pH 4.17 and total acidity 0.15 g malic acid 100 mL-1) and sensory acceptance (flavor and overall impression). Furthermore, it presented important volatile compounds (2-methyl-1-butanol, formic acid butyl ester, acetyl pentyl acetate, and α-terpinolene). A synergistic effect of apple juice and cardamom tea was observed for the antioxidant activity and number of volatile compounds, demonstrating the potential of this mixed beverage as a functional food. In conclusion, it was possible to develop a mixed beverage with suitable nutritional, physicochemical and sensory properties using 70% of organic apple juice and 30% of cardamom tea.
