Your New Favorite Summer Drink

Summer finally feels like it’s around the corner—and that’s because it is. With the weather getting warmer, you’ll be venturing outside even more, which means you’ll also most likely be getting more sweaty. That means staying hydrated will be more important than ever.

You won’t want to re-up with just any old hydration either. You want fuel that not only makes you feel good but also is good for your body — and that hydration tool might just be coconut water.

While the idea of coconut water generally sounds tropical and delicious, you might not realize all of the health benefits that go along with drinking it. Here’s a quick crash course on coconut water, or, as we like to say, Coconut Water 101.

 

What Is Coconut Water?

In its simplest form, we cracked the coconut open for you, and we’re bringing you what’s inside: a hydrating beverage filled with naturally occurring electrolytes, nutrients, and vitamins and a lightly sweet taste.

 

Which Ones Should I Drink?

There are so many Vita Coco products to choose from, but we want to highlight our two most popular here:

 

The Original

We started our business on this one. It’s hydration that tastes like you’re on a tropical vacation, although it can be enjoyed anywhere, anytime. Sometimes, on a hot summer day, straight coconut water is all you need.

 

Pressed

We took The Original and added a dash of coconut puree that makes it taste even more coconutty, with all of the same naturally-occurring electrolytes, nutrients, and vitamins. The extra coconut flavor and texture makes Vita Coco Pressed very versatile. Throw it in a hydrating smoothie, use it as a summer cocktail mixer, or just drink it as is for an afternoon boost.

 

Why Vita Coco?

Just like the humble beginnings of Mother’s Market, we understand business that’s rooted in community, as we source most of our coconut water from small family farms around the world.

Realizing that coconut production has a positive impact on our farming communities, we launched The Vita Coco Project® in 2014 in Southeast Asia. Together with our partners, we’ve formed an ambition to positively impact one million people in our coconut farming communities through initiatives such as building classrooms and agricultural education.

When you drink coconut water, you feel good. When you realize the production of those coconuts has helped farmers diversify their crops, grow responsibly, and generate additional income for their communities, you feel even better.
