Sugarcane juice is a refreshing drink made from sugarcane by crushing cane juice to get water. This drink is popular in Asia, Southeast Asia and Latin America; it is also a part of the memory of every Vietnamese person’s childhood.

Vinamit Joint Stock Company recently announced that its sugar-cane juice and freeze dried sugarcane juice has just been patented by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) in the US market, reported NDO.

Over the past two months, the patents were sent back to Vietnam, recognising Vinamit as the inventor of a series of lyophilized beverages made from domestic vegetables and fruits. Sugar-cane juice and freeze dried sugar-cane juice are the newest of these.

Previously, Vinamit's freeze-drying technology, converting liquid to powder but still keeping the originality and single substance composition, was also patented by the US (US No. 10.676.797 B1). Vinamit applies this technology to fruits, vegetables and fruits and has patents registered in the US and Vietnam.
