Dairy or non-dairy based fortified carbonated beverage solutions that supply essential nutrients in the human diet. The solution contains per 354 ml, calcium, magnesium and potassium ions in the form of salts and optionally vitamins A, D, C and folic acid in specified amounts to provide dietary supplementation. Sweeteners, stabilizers, flavors and carbonation can also be added to enhance flavor, taste, mouth-feel, ingredient solubilization and product appearance. A method of making the beverages is also described. A method of using carbonation to reduce bacterial counts from milk-based beverages with or without pasteurization is also disclosed.

The beverage composition of claim 2 wherein the flavoring agent is selected from the group consisting of chocolate fudge, chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, prairie berry, mocha, latte, peach, almond, coconut, raspberry, saskatoon berry, plains berry, apple, orange, butterscotch, coffee, blueberry and mixtures thereof. 4. The beverage composition of claim 1 further comprising from about 50 IU to about 600 IU of vitamin D. 5. The beverage composition of claim 1 further comprising from about 0.1 mg to about 1000 mg of vitamin C. 6. The beverage composition of claim 1 further comprising from about 500 IU to about 5000 IU of vitamin A. 7. The beverage composition of claim 1 further comprising from about 0.01 mg to about 0.40 mg of folic acid. 8. The beverage composition of claim 1 further comprising from about 50 IU to about 600 IU of vitamin D; from about 0.1 mg to about 1000 mg of vitamin C; from about 500 IU to about 5000 IU of vitamin A and from about 0.01 mg to about 0.4 mg of folic acid. 9. The beverage composition of claim 1 further comprising from about 0.15 g to about 0.70 g of a preservative. 10. The beverage composition of claim 9 wherein the preservative is benzoic acid or a benzoate compound selected from the group consisting of sodium benzoate, potassium benzoate, calcium benzoate, magnesium benzoate and mixtures thereof. 11. The beverage composition of claim 1 wherein the composition has a pH of from about 4.0 to about 7.0. 12. The beverage composition of claim 1 further comprising lactase in an amount sufficient to essentially eliminate the activity of milk lactose. 13. The beverage composition of claim 12 further comprising crystalline fruit fructose. 14. A method of preparing a beverage composition suitable for human consumption comprising the steps of:providing from about 10 ml to about 344 ml of a liquid solvent;heating the liquid solvent to a temperature of from about 70° F. to about 74° F.;adding non-fat dry milk to the liquid solvent to form a first mixture;stirring the first mixture for at least two minutes;supplying calcium ions to the first mixture by adding a calcium salt selected from the group consisting of calcium picolinate, calcium aspartate, calcium gluconate, calcium ascorbate, calcium lactate and mixtures thereof to the mixture to form a second mixture;stirring the second mixture for at least two minutes;supplying magnesium ions to the second mixture after supplying calcium ions by adding a magnesium salt selected from the grou p consisting of magnesium picolinate, magnesium aspartate, magnesium gluconate, magnesium ascorbate, magnesium lactate, magnesium phytate, magnesium acetate, magnesium caseinate, magnesium glutamate, magnesium pyruvate, magnesium palmitate and mixtures thereof;stirring the third mixture for at least two minutes;supplying potassium ions to the third mixture by adding a magnesium salt selected from the group consisting of potassium picolinate, potassium aspartate, potassium gluconate, potassium ascorbate, potassium lactate, potassium phytate, potassium acetate, potassium glutamate, potassium pyruvate, potassium palmitate, potassium caseinate and mixtures thereof to the mixture to form a fourth mixture;stirring the fourth mixture for at least two minutes;adding a sweetener to the fourth mixture to form a fifth mixture;stirring the fifth mixture for at least two minutes;cooling the fifth mixture to ambient temperature;bubbling CO 2 into the fifth mixture;cooling the fifth mixture to from about 32° F. to about 68° F. to form a cooled mixture;subjecting the cooled mixture to pressurized carbon dioxide with sufficient pressure and for a sufficient time to provide from about 0.1 volumes to about 4.0 volumes of carbon dioxide dissolved in the cooled mixture to form a carbonated mixture. 15.
