Description
Summary:Kenaf or Hibiscus cannabinus L is a fibrous plant that usually planted in African and Asian countries. Kenaf has a lot of benefits due to its phytochemical contents. These benefits can be obtained through various usages, such as consuming it as kenaf herbal tea. Therefore, this research was focusing on kenaf herbal tea integrated with peach extract as a flavouring. This study had formulated the peach flavoured kenaf herbal tea and analysed its stability in different packaging. The research methods were the development of kenaf herbal tea with five formulations and the stability analysis which involved pH, moisture content, and colour analysis in two types of packaging. The analyses were then interpretated statistically by using two-ways ANOVA method in IBM SPSS Statistics software. This result showed that there was significant difference in pH on comparative analysis between each formulation, while unsignificant difference between pH and packaging, and between pH with each formulation and packaging. The moisture content and colour also showed there were no significant different between each of the comparative analysis.
