Yes, it probably would be. Pineapple juice is also good in marinades, and
as an addition to other fruit drinks and cocktails. Pineapple with rum is
wonderful. Lots of other things you could do with it, too. Try googling
"pineapple juice recipes".

I have started drinking more water and eating fruit. My favorite
fruit as long as it lasts is pineapple. (canned)

The label says 10g sugar.

I eat the fruit and pour out the juice.

I am thinking about making some decaf tea and using the juice to
sweeten a glass of tea.

Anyone think that would be good?

I'm curious to know whether there's more than a drop or two of
true pineapple juice in canned pineapple (and that probably there by
accident, or loss of "quality" control .

I'll try to remember to check the ingredients here next time I'm in
the supermarket. In the meantime, what do your brands say about it?

Cheers, Phred.

Well I sure can't complain about the speed of your reply! Almost like
a chat session. :-) As it's nearly 00:30 here, I'm off to the cot
now. But thank you for the response -- now the pressure is on me to
remember to check out the local stuff here in Oz!

Cheers, Phred.

Sure. But I'd probably just take my share of the fruit from the can and
give the rest, juice and all, to my 13 year-old son. And I'd have to
eat fast, too, or he'd be back, asking, "Are you going to finish that,
or what?"

Well, he does have a point ... it's not like your going out and spending
$50. Make tea, add juice. If it's good, do it again, if it isn't ... pour
it down the sink.

I'm sure it would be good in iced tea. I have been served iced tea
punches that were made of sweetened tea mixed with fruit juices (I
think orange and lemon). The punches are a beautiful golden color and
they taste delicious.

and it's pretty good.
