Abstract

This systematic literature review aimed to critically evaluate the use of fruit agro-industrial residues in the production of alcoholic beverages, with emphasis on technological performance, functional properties, and sustainability. Nineteen studies published between 2016 and 2025 were analyzed, considering residue types, processing conditions, physicochemical characteristics, sensory acceptance, and industrial application potential. The results indicate that peels, pomace, and seeds are viable substrates for producing beers, wines, and liqueurs due to their content of fermentable sugars and high concentrations of phenolic compounds, flavonoids, and anthocyanins, which contribute to antioxidant activity, oxidative stability, and sensory complexity. In several cases, beverages produced from residues showed higher total phenolic contents than conventional products. However, the evidence reveals significant methodological heterogeneity, with variations in fermentation parameters, extraction techniques, and sensory analysis protocols. Most studies were conducted at laboratory scale, limiting extrapolation to industrial contexts. Conventional processes such as fermentation and maceration still predominate, while emerging approaches focused on process optimization show potential to improve efficiency and standardization. Sensory acceptance is generally favorable but often based on small panels of untrained consumers. In addition, safety and regulatory aspects remain underexplored. From a sustainability perspective, residue valorization aligns with circular economy principles. Nevertheless, challenges persist regarding raw material variability, process standardization, and large-scale feasibility, indicating the need for further studies to support industrial application.
