The aim of this work was to investigate whether selected plant beverages can be a carrier of live cultures of lactic acid bacteria. Seven commercial dairy freeze-dried starters were analysed in the experiments. They were used to produce samples of fermented and non-fermented three market plant beverages (soy, rice, and coconut). The analysis of the plant beverage samples was carried out for three weeks of the refrigerated storage. The number of lactic acid bacteria cells (lactobacilli and streptococci) and pH were determined. In all starter cultures, a significantly higher share of streptococci than lactobacilli was observed. The viability of lactobacilli and streptococci was dependent on the type of plant beverage and the starter culture used, as well as on whether the beverage was fermented. Our experiments clearly show that the starter culture should be carefully selected for the specific type of plant beverage.
