Colorectal cancer is one of the crucial reasons of morbidity and mortality globally. It has been postulated that functionally bioactive components found in certain foods may have been highly effective in preventing various lethal diseases including cancer. The current investigation highlights a previously unrecognized anticarcinogenic and apoptotic effects of the innovative beverage developed from sirkencubin syrup (SC), a traditional beverage from Turkish gastronomy, by naturally supplementating with purple basil and processing ultrasound treatment on human colon carcinoma cell (Caco‐2) model. This observation was possibly related to the marked induction of antioxidant activities and bioactive flavonoid, phenolic, and aromatic components of SC supplemented with purple basil subsequent ultrasound treatment. Finally, our findings suggest that consumers’ sensory perception influencing food preferences was positively affected by ultrasound treatment, likely due to remarkable increases in certain aroma compounds of SC supplemented with purple basil and significant reduction in the total amount of ketones. Novelty impact statement An innovative beverage with gastronomic values and ingredients was produced. Emerging ultrasound treatment approach enriched the bioactive components. Anticancer effects of innovatively developed beverages were determined as in vitro.
