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

The coconut water was spoilt. Maybe I just got a bad batch but I will be shopping a different brand. It does not help that I cannot return the unused
boxes.

This stuff is awesome. It is refreshing and just feels healthy. I think it helped me to recover from my cold faster, too. This is by far the best brand (I've tried 4 or 5 others). Even my husband loves it (he likes the peach mango, I prefer the plain coconut), and he's not even a coconut fan like I am.

I'm so glad I stumbled on this coconut water! I ride my bike in the Florida heat frequently and this has led to some serious dehydration. I do drink water (but can't drink too much since I don't want to have to worry about the bathroom when I'm in the middle of nowhere!) and I'm not into sugary junky Gatorade style drinks. I purchased a case from Amazon and signed up for the subscription, which brings the price way down compared to purchasing at my local health food store. I now drink one before I leave on any type of excursion in the sun like biking, kayaking, etc. and so far it seems to have helped. I also happen to love the taste, I find it really light and refreshing but I will caution you to try it before ordering a case of it. I've had many friends taste it and they did not see how I could even drink it! So, it's all a matter of preference... Even my 12yr old son swipes these from me, but keep in mind that we're not accustomed to sweet drinks and usually drink unsweetened iced teas or water. If you're used to sodas and sugary sports drinks, you might not like this since it has a unique and very mild taste. Personally I'm hooked on these, I think they're so refreshing and delish!

I haven't tasted other brands, so don't know how this compares with others. But this one tasted real close to the original. Its not as sweet as home grown tender coconuts are, but not bland either. I am not an expert with nutrition, but i have heard that its good for health to have it before breakfast.

Though I normally love coconut water, I was very disappointed with this product. Though you can taste some coconut, it tastes as though it has been thinned with apple juice. I checked the ingredient list and apple juice does not appear (as is so common with many juices), but the flavor is undeniably present.
