Vita Coco - Pure Coconut Water (500ml x 12) - Naturally Hydrating - Packed With Electrolytes - Gluten Free - Full Of Vitamin C & Potassium

I have tried several brands of coconut water and this is my favorite by far! It doesn't have the added sugar or pulp like some of the cheaper brands in the can. It's all natural and smooth tasting. I like the 17oz box because it has the twist off cap. I workout a lot and on days with a lot of cardio, I will drink a bottle of this before and/or after my workout. It has more potassium than 2 bananas, more electrolytes than a sports drink and it's all natural with no fat or cholesterol. It's low in calories and keeps my hydrated. I don't know what else I could ask for in a drink. It also seconds for a great hangover cure. After a long night of drinking alcohol, I slam a bottle of Vita Coco, with some advil and I never wake up with a hangover. I have difficulty finding it from the local grocery store and when I do find it, it's actually slightly more expensive than purchasing and having it delivered to my doorstep! Some of my friends like the vita coco with pineapple or mango, but I like the Pure Coconut Water!

Vita Coco IS 100% pure; not all coconut waters can claim that! It tastes like you just stuck a straw in a green coconut and sipped the refreshing nectar and went "Ahhhh".It is certainly refreshing and that is supported not only by medical people but by a friend of mine from India. So who you gonna believe, heh?On a trip to India, while we were driving from Bangalore (now Bangalaroo) to Mysore, I noticed a lot of people stopping along side the road to buy coconuts from vendors. I asked my friend what that was all about. Did they like to eat coconuts THAT much?? He told me that they were stopping to get a refreshing drink to help them fight the effects of the heat. Coconut water gave them a good resistance to the heat and refreshed them. Intriguing, I thought at the time. But later on when I discovered the product made by Vita Coco all that discussion came flooding back to me. The amount of potassium is great compared to bananas. I DO get an uplifting feeling knowing that I'm not only getting a tasty drink (I like that 17 ounce size) but it has such great benefits of refreshment during the hot season.CHEERS!!

Coconut water is a naturally sweet beverage that provides essential electrolytes including potassium, sodium, magnesium, calcium and phosphorous. It is far healthier than heavily dyed, artificially sweetened sports drinks. I purchase Vita Coco Coconut Water, Pure, 16.9 Ounce (Pack of 12) regularly and include it in my smoothies and other drinks. My daughter likes to drink it straight up.WHAT I LIKE:• Its mild flavor does not seep through when added to other things, which is important to me because I cannot stand the taste of coconut.• It is a healthy addition to my green smoothies, especially after a hard workout at the gym.• It is appealing to my kids as a drink and so much better than soda.• The coconut water is not in plastic which leaches toxic chemicals.• The twist on lid makes the coconut water storable if I don’t finish the carton.• Added to frozen strawberries, lime juice and tequila, coconut water naturally sweetens margaritas.• It tastes fantastic blended with frozen pineapple.WHAT I DON’T LIKE:• From time to time I will get a case of coconut water with defective lids.PICTURES: I am including a picture of the coconut water container lid as well as a carton in my hand for a size reference.I really love the Vita Coco Coconut Water, Pure, 16.9 Ounce (Pack of 12) and would definitely recommend it. I keep a stock of this on hand at all times.

I'll be honest, when I first started drinking coconut water, I wasnt a fan. Years of loving almond joys and those coconut cream filled eggs they have around easter time, I wasn't expecting real coconut to be so...well...not sweet.But after a few attempts, the taste really started to grow on me and I now love coconut oil (use it in my tea), coconut flakes (use it in my oatmeal), and coconut water.Vita Coconut seems to be larger in size/ounce than some other coconut brands out there. Also, it taste very fresh compared to cracking open a real coconut and drinking the water straight out of it which I have also done several times.I only wish that they products were made organically. That would have caused me to give it 5 stars. Also, I am not 100% thrilled with the packaging of this product, but I will say that it is still a lot better than having it in plastic.I recommend Vita Coco over the other coconut brands.And subscribing to them on amazon makes them the cheapest around at only about a $1.50 or so a drink as opposed to the $2.50 / $3.00 Ive seen them for in stores.

I have gastroparesis (paralyzed stomach), which often leaves me dehydrated, has left me having to get a potassium drip in the ER before along with an IV for the dehydration, and horribly nauseated and sick when I drink regular water. I finally took the plunge and tried these, and I am so glad I did. The first one wasn't my favorite, but I guess I developed a taste for them because I started liking them by the second one. Besides the fact that I tolerate them better than regular water, I also now am not drinking all soft drinks and have added one a day to my drink rotation, along with adding coconut mixers to my regular water and sipping on them throughout the day and found they don't automatically make me sick either.
