Hydration Drink Formulation Support

Job ID: 39787015

Budget: ₹500,000 – ₹1,000,000 INR

I’m setting up a hydration-drink plant in Andhra Pradesh and have reached the concept stage, so every element of the recipe is still flexible. My immediate priority is flavor development that will translate into a market-ready isotonic or electrolyte beverage suited to the Indian palate and climate.

Here’s what I need:
• A core formulation with a clear flavour matrix, sweetness profile and mouthfeel targets.
• Lab-ready recipes scaled for pilot batches (5–10 L) that can be transferred to commercial volumes without losing taste or stability.
• Guidance on processing parameters—pH, Brix and mineral balance—to meet FSSAI standards for sports and electrolyte drinks.
• A concise R&D roadmap outlining how we can iterate on variants (e.g., sugar-free, low-calorie, seasonal flavours) once the first SKU is proven.

Please detail your previous beverage work—especially hydration or functional drinks—and the analytical tools or flavour houses you prefer to work with. I’ll supply local ingredient specs, plant capabilities and target cost per litre once we start.
