Whenever I've had coconut water it's just been plain water. At Whole Foods, the lady at the juice bar noticed I was scanning the coconut waters. I wanted to try something different as I noticed different flavor combos, and so she must have read my mind because she said to me:
"Have you ever tried coconut water with pulp in it?"
"Why no...Is it good?" I replied inquisitively.
"It''s my favorite. I like the chunks because it's kinda fun to chew as you drink," replied the friendly juice lady.
I just got a good vibe from that lady so I picked up a bottle of Taste Nirvana's Real Coconut Water with pulp made in Thailand. I took an up close shot of the coconut water so you could see what the pulp looks like.
Ya know what, I agree with the juice lady, it is kinda fun to chew as you drink. Plus, the chunks make the drink taste just a tad sweeter to me. I really appreciate that one 9.5oz bottle has just 75 calories, 1 gram of fat and 9 grams of sugar. There's even 2 grams of fiber. Bonus!
And as another added bonus, I had heard that coconut water is also a good hangover remedy because the water is packed with electrolytes which helps a hangover because the body is basically really dehydrated from the alcohol, and electrolytes help to rehydrate.
Last weekend, I had an opportunity to see if coconut water could indeed be a non-boozy hair of the dog option and ya know what, it did help!
I found me a new fun drink!
