Abstract
This study developed an innovative, mild, and sweet fruit-wine alcoholic beverage using Grapes (Vitis vinifera) and Dippig Saba Banana (Musa acuminata × balbisiana) to create a unique blend that highlights the flavors. The study aimed to standardize the formulation and process; determine sensory qualities, physicochemical properties, consumer acceptability and shelf life; compute the production cost; and design a marketing plan. The research design, which included developmental, descriptive, experimental, and quantitative methods, was employed to test three formulations with varied grape-banana ratios. Treatment 3 was the most acceptable, receiving the highest sensory ratings, while physicochemical tests confirmed stability with 0.57% titratable acidity and 4.11% alcohol content, and refrigerated temperature preserved quality over a four-month period, compared with gradual decline at room temperature. Production cost analysis supported a competitive selling price, and the marketing plan highlighted innovation and affordability, demonstrating the product’s potential as a safe, appealing, and commercially viable crafted wine.
