Primary hydration component with zero calories or additives; supports all bodily functions with no negative effects in this context.
- Sucrose (Sweetener)Caution
Refined added sugar delivering quick energy but causes high glycemic load, risks of weight gain, dental caries, and metabolic issues with regular intake.

Supplies B vitamins, minerals and some protein from malting; beneficial for mild nutritional boost but gluten content risks digestive issues or reactions in sensitive people.

Adds tart flavor and aids preservation; generally safe but can contribute to tooth enamel erosion or mild stomach irritation if overconsumed.
- Pineapple Natural Flavouring (Flavoring Agent)
Natural extract providing authentic pineapple taste with trace potential antioxidants; offers negligible nutrition but avoids synthetic additive concerns.
- Caramel (Coloring Agent)Caution
Delivers appealing brown hue; safe at typical levels but some production methods yield compounds with potential carcinogenic debate in high long-term exposure.
