As a fruit of the tropics, Mangosteen is called “Queen of fruits”. The fruit rind protecting the pulp (aril) is very thick and chemically known to contain a spectrum of compounds, particularly zanthones/ phenolics/ tannins/ flavanoids. Their implications on health care are more. The present process aims at preparation of beverage and jelly using alcohol extract of the
rind, for implied properties of health benefits. The beverage and jelly from mangosteen rind can be supplemented also with natural fruit juices, for fruit flavours like pineapple, mango or lime
