About This Food

Description

Coconut water is the liquid inside young, immature coconuts. As the coconut matures this liquid largely becomes absorbed into the flesh.

Coconut water has long been a popular drink in the tropics,and is marketed today as a sports drink due to its high potassium and mineral content.

Coconut water helps to alkalize the body and is naturally fat-free and low in calories.

Selecting & Storing

Look for organic coconut water and refrigerate after opening.
