A bromelain drink is a beverage that contains the protein-digesting enzyme bromelain. The enzyme is commonly sourced from pineapple, but products differ in whether they contain pineapple juice and how much bromelain they provide.
A bromelain drink may taste fruity or tart if it contains pineapple, but there is no standard flavor. Some products use other ingredients or added bromelain, so the taste depends on the specific drink.
Not necessarily. Bromelain occurs naturally in pineapple, but manufacturers can add the enzyme to a drink that is not made from pineapple juice. Check the ingredient list to see which kind you have.
A bromelain drink has not been proven to reduce inflammation or treat a medical condition. Research on bromelain supplements does not establish that drinking a beverage containing the enzyme has the same effects.
High heat can reduce bromelain’s enzyme activity. If you want to preserve as much activity as possible, drink a bromelain drink cold or at room temperature rather than heating or boiling it.
Yes, you can blend pineapple into a drink because pineapple naturally contains bromelain. However, homemade pineapple juice does not provide a predictable or standardized amount of the enzyme.
Yes, you can mix a bromelain drink into a smoothie. Avoid adding it while the other ingredients are hot, since heat can reduce the enzyme’s activity; the finished smoothie’s bromelain content will still vary by product.
Yes, bromelain may interact with some medicines, including blood thinners. If you take regular medication, ask your doctor or pharmacist before adding a bromelain drink to your routine.
Refrigerate a bromelain drink after opening and follow the storage and use-by instructions on its packaging. Keep homemade versions covered and chilled, and drink them while fresh.
Bromelain breaks down proteins, but there is not strong evidence that a bromelain drink noticeably improves digestion. The amount and activity of the enzyme can also differ between drinks.

Bromelain drink is a beverage formulated with bromelain, an enzyme naturally found in pineapple, especially its stem and fruit. There is no single traditional recipe: depending on the product, it may use a fruit-juice base or simply include the enzyme in another drink. Its flavour and thickness therefore vary, and it is not necessarily strongly pineapple-flavoured.
It is usually served chilled, as a refreshment or alongside a light snack. For English-speaking readers, it can fit much like other fruit-based drinks at breakfast or between meals. It is mainly a source of carbohydrate, with 38 calories per 100 g. If you want a lighter option, check the label for added sugar and choose a smaller serving.
Low
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.
