Abstract

The embodiments disclose a method including bottling alcoholic beverages with selected ingredients including alcohol neutral spirits, alcohol and whisky, beer, wine, ingredients to add flavors and nutritional additive ingredients to benefit the health of an alcoholic beverage drinker, wherein a selection of alcohols includes vodka, tequila, gin, rum, brandy and other alcoholic spirits, wherein a selection of ingredients to add flavors includes flavorings including fruit flavorings, an artificial sweetener, and natural sweetener, wherein a selection of nutritional additive ingredients includes vitamins, minerals, fulvic acid, humic acid, ulmic acid and a purified and sanitized black water with humic acid and fulvic acid molecules in a mixed solution, and wherein bottling includes a bottling electronic monitoring, at least one control network, at least one bottling quality control process and a bottling labeling and packaging process and devices.

Claims (16)

1. A method for producing a black colored alcoholic beverage in an alcoholic spirit bottling process, comprising:

providing testing and contamination control devices for testing and controlling bacterial and microbial contaminant growth levels in bottles and bottling facilities employed in the process to maintain safety and sanitary conditions of the bottling process;

providing an alcoholic spirit ingredient in the alcoholic spirit bottling process;

mixing a purified water ingredient with the alcoholic spirit ingredient during the bottling process;

mixing humic acid and fulvic acid ingredients with the purified water ingredient and alcoholic beverage spirit ingredient mixture, wherein after mixing the humic acid and the fulvic acid ingredients with the purified water ingredient and alcoholic beverage spirit ingredient mixture, the humic acid and fulvic acid ingredients are suspended within the mixture to create a black colored mixed solution for human consumption;

monitoring conditions of the black colored mixed solution using at least one testing device for detecting bacterial and microbial organisms of the black colored mixed solution; and

creating a bottled black colored alcoholic beverage for human consumption from the black colored mixed solution of the bottling process.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising filtering microorganisms from the humic acid and fulvic acid ingredients.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising providing a first ultraviolet light sterilization treatment for the humic acid and fulvic acid ingredients.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising providing a second ultraviolet light sterilization treatment process subsequent to a first ultraviolet light sterilization treatment process for sanitizing the black colored mixed solution with containing the humic acid and fulvic acid ingredients.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising treating the black colored mixed solution with filtration, dechlorination, sterilization, and pH adjustment process steps.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the purified water ingredient is derived from natural spring water.

7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising detecting and adjusting the black colored mixed solution pH level during the step of mixing to create the black colored mixed solution using a pH adjusting additive.

8. The method of claim 1 , further comprising providing a dechlorination treatment comprising a dual treatment process including a first ultraviolet treatment process followed by a subsequent second ultraviolet light treatment process for dechlorination of the black colored mixed solution.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the providing testing and contamination control devices step includes providing at least one on-site automated sample testing device, at least one test valve and supply piping, and using a solenoid to open and close the at least one test valve and process samples through the at least one on-site automated testing device.

10. The method of claim 9 , wherein each of the at least one on site automated testing device is operable for transmitting an alert signal to activate a pulsing red light at a location of the at least one test valve, activate an audio alarm and activate a shut-down of a supply valve to prevent further contamination.
