What it is

Unsweetened pineapple juice is the liquid extracted from fresh pineapples. It is made by pressing or crushing the fruit to release its natural juices. The juice is then typically filtered to remove pulp and solids, and it is not sweetened with added sugars.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use unsweetened pineapple juice primarily as a natural sweetener and flavor enhancer due to its inherent sweetness and tropical taste. It can also act as a tenderizer in marinades for meats and poultry. It is commonly found in canned fruits, baked goods like cakes and pies, and some sauces.

Health notes

Unsweetened pineapple juice is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of vitamin C and manganese. JECFA has evaluated pineapple juice and found no safety concerns at typical consumption levels. While naturally occurring sugars are present, it does not contain added sugars when unsweetened. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from consuming unsweetened pineapple juice in moderation.

Allergen info

Pineapple is not one of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. It does not contain gluten.
