Vita Coco 100% Pure Coconut Water, 11.2-Ounce Containers (Pack of 12)

High nutritional value, long shelf-life, top convenience: perfect for those who are looking for all these, but not much taste. Personally, I like the pineapple version much better.

Make no mistake, this is an acquired taste. You can definitely taste the electrolyte cocktail and it's low in sugar, so only slightly sweet. It's kinda cloudy in appearance, but that's how it's supposed to be. I have tried the variety with mango and peach added, and that was nice, though I also like the plain coconut water. It's good if you're thirsty after a workout.

Coconut water has really benefited me in several ways. First it is a great hydrator and a container right after working in the yard really is invigorating. I recently had a bad virus and this was a wonderful soothing benefit for my sore throat. There are other benefits as well. There's a great book available about coconut water well worth buyiig. Look it up, Amazon probably has it available..

As to the shipping on the automatic system. My first order arrived quickly. I tried to up my quantity a case per month but resulted in an immediate shipment of the next month's supply plus a second order (I was able to cancel) of another month's order. I had to cancel out of the program to end the 'automatic' shipments and will have to restart it when I need more water. My daughter had the same experience and was suddenly loaded with 16 cases, a two month supply. Fortunately I'm able to help her with her over supply.

We are both hesitant to again subscribe to the automatic monthly shipping program until we are assured we won't be getting doubled up over again. We love the product, appreciate the free shipping and the bonus deals but until we can be certain we're going to get only one shipment at a time and the subsequent shipments are going to come when scheduled, we're very lery of ordering through Amazon again for this product.

This is the first stuff that actually works for me! A lot of the other heavy salt/sugar sport drinks make me nauseous if I drink them when I get really over-heated after physical exercise. I took this in my pack on a long horseback ride and this made such a big difference! Love this stuff and when I feel hot/headachy after a long day, this stuff really makes the difference. I love over ice or in a frozen mug! I am hooked!

I was skeptical when I was first told of coconut water by a friend, I couldn't imagine it was a hydrating as she made it out to be. I've tried all of the functional beverages with added electrolytes etc. and found them all to be sub par- I figured coco water was a gimmick.

I stand corrected. Suffering thru a horrible flu last Christmas I was dehydrated beyond belief. I dranks tons of water and just couldn't quench my thirst. While in my local Wholefoods I came across Vita Coco. One little pack and I swear to you I felt like I had drank a liter of water out of an aquafer. I promise you, you instantly feel hydrated and fresh. I drink regularly and use it as a pick me up when tired. My family, friends and boyfriend are all fans now and I was pleasantly surprised to see it on subscrition at Amazon. I get 2 cases a month. I promise- you won't be disappointed!
