It took me two decades to learn that coconut water does not taste like sweat. Rather, some bottles on the grocery store shelf are full of sweat while others are not. I tried them all so now I can tell you which is which.
These are the kings of coconut water. Somehow, they manage to taste toasted. I don’t understand how you do that. Delicious.
Notes and caveats: Do not try the flavored versions. Good coconut water is like good sushi—simple is better. Also Coaqua’s brand copy is extremely cringe. And why is Harmless Harvest pink?
I really like the corrugated metal look but the flavor is, in my view, unremarkable. Nageena’s favorite.
I would rather have normal water than these, unless I’m feeling desperate or it’s been a while.
Do not buy under any circumstances. Despicable, vile drink.
