Abstract

The post-COVID-19 pandemic shifted public perception to a healthier lifestyle, such as the consumption of herbal tea daily. Herbal tea refers to an infusion of grounded dried parts of the plant, either singular or mixed materials which are reported to contain a beneficial compound that improves human health, i.e. mixture of cascara and Dayak onions. Cascara is reported to have antioxidant compounds and is available in abundant quality. On the other hand, the Dayak onion previously acknowledged as a medicinal plant is high in price but has a low acceptance level. Therefore, here we demonstrated how well the consumer accepted the infusion of cascara Dayak onion herbal tea using the simple average weighed (SAW) method. The herbal tea was packed in an instant tea bag with seven different ratios, such as 100:0; 80:20; 60:40: 50:50; 40:60; 20:80, and 0:100, and then it was infused with brewing water for 5 and 8.5 minutes. 30 respondents who are regular herbal tea consumers were interviewed and organoleptically tested their acceptance of the color, aroma, flavor, and aftertaste of our herbal tea using a 1 to 5 hedonic scale (very dislike to very like). Most of the respondents are women (83%) aged from 35 to 55 years old and consume herbal tea daily. Their acceptance of the color, aroma, and flavor of herbal tea infusion ranged from dislike to just right with an average of just right for all sensory properties. By using SAW, respondents claimed that the flavor of herbal infusion is an important sensory property with a value of 31,67%, over other sensory properties. By calculating the SAW matrix, herbal tea with a ratio of 60% cascara: 40% Dayak onion and infused for 5 minutes is considered as best treatment with an optimum score is 0,97. However further research is required to acknowledge all quality parameters of produced herbal tea.
