Black nightshade (Solanum nigrum L.) fruit contains many antioxidant compounds, however, utilization of black nightshade as food or beverage product has not been much studied.

Sugar concentration used were 10%, 12.5%, and 15%. Acids used were from citric acid, belimbing wuluh (Averrhoa bilimbi) and lime (Citrus aurantifolia). It was found that the selected formulation was black nightshade juice added with 15% of sugar concentration and acid added from belimbing wuluh (Averrhoa bilimbi). This formula has acceptance value of 4.41± 1.357  and the IC50 value of 2118.0582 ± 96.3983 mg/L. Storage was done for 6 weeks in refrigerated temperature. During storage, quality of black nightshade juice decreased after 2 weeks, observed from decrease in its antioxidant activity, total phenolic and flavonoid compound.
