The vegetative clarified sugarcane juice (SCJ) was used as sugar replacer in the preparation of beverage. The specific proportions of sugarcane juice were utilized for beverage preparation using central composite rotatable design (CCRD). Response surface analysis for grape beverages indicated that sensory flavor and overall acceptability (OAA) scores varied from 6.04 to 8.10 and 6.72 to 7.95, respectively on nine point hedonic scale.  The differences in the sensory scores for respective attributes were highly significant (Pof sugarcane juice and sugar as 43.6% and 4.38%, respectively. Subsequent evaluations on storage for 90 days at 37OC reduced sensory scores from 7.55 to 7.15. Ready-to-serve beverages prepared from optimized recipe gave products of microbiologically safe and sterile nature. Their storage for 90 days at 37OC reduced sensory scores Sugarcane juice could be used as replacer of sugar in the preparation of sugarcane juice based beverage.
