Abstract

Anemia in adolescent girls can occur due to the lack of consumption of Vitamin C and Iron rich drinks. When consuming alternative drinks, the adolescent girls do not care much about their nutritional contents but their taste. Bananas and Avocados contain high levels of Vitamin C and Iron where in 100 g there are 55.1207 and 9.3015 mg of Vitamin C and 2.5726 and 1.7455 mg of Iron respectively. Cava Smoothie is a smoothie that stands for Cavendish Banana and Avocado Butter as the main ingredients and Pure Honey and Sukkari Dates as supporting ingredients. This study aims to determine the formulation, acceptability, and content of macro (Protein, Fat, Carbohydrates) and micro (Vitamin C and Iron) nutrients. This study used an experimental method using a non-factorial Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with 2 repetitions. The research subjects were 25 semi-trained panelists. The results of the acceptability test on the research panelists showed that F0 was the most preferred formula by the panelists, with the nutritional content of Protein of 4.1250%, Fat of 1.0111%, Carbohydrates of 30.5470%, Vitamin C of 41.23 mg/100 g, and Iron of 12.49 mg/100 g. F0 is the chosen formula because it has good receptivity and also nutritional content that can meet the needs of alternative drinks. Therefore, it can be used as a snack for anemic adolescent girls. Research can be continued with research on the effect of giving Cava Smoothie and iron supplementation to increase hemoglobin levels and erythrocyte index in anemic adolescent girls.
