 The real deal! June 18, 2007

Absolutely delicious. As someone who grew up drinking coconut water every day in east Africa, it was hard to live without it in the US. A friend recently introduced me to VitaCoco and it is perfect! Tastes exactly like a fresh coconut, but with the added benefit of being chilled! I LOVE IT. Only wish it were cheaper so I could guzzle it in the quantities I'm used to!

I first bought this last month for my wife after delivery. I have bought 10 cases so far in a month! I drank most of them though! I grew up drinking tender coconut water in India to quench your thirst or when sick.
The natural flavor of Vitacoco is very close to the real tender-coconut water. My wife loves this too and she is very choosy when it comes to taste. I drink one when I go home in the evening and I feel rejuvenated drinking this. All natural, no sugars added!I used the coupon coconut4 to get 2 cases for $25 shipped! worth every penny.

This stuff is soo good that I can never just have one pack! To top it off, it is healthy too. The taste is authentic and there are no preservatives. Till July 31, you can get two cartons for $25!

My husband and I LOVE this stuff. We love how quickly it absorbs into the body. It just feels so right, doesn't sit or have a weird after taste like most sport drinks. Our body loves this stuff just as much as we do...without all that fructose, sucrose, and whatchamacallit preservative additive stuff in so many products today. I love the plain coconut water as it has less calories and gives me the boost I need. Just check out the ingredient list...coconut water...that's it!!! Gee I sound like a commercial :-/. Anyway, the fact that it's low in calories and offers the potassium and electrolites we need just seals the deal for us. Oh the other thing I noticed when comparing products is vitacoco uses ACTUAL fruit puree unlike the other brand that uses fruit essence...what is fruit "essence" anyway???
And if you've never had coconut water, it doesn't taste like cococut meat. It's more earthy and subtle. And if you're squimish on taste and picky, I recommend my husband's favorite flavor, Pineapple. That one is coconut water with pineapple and coconut meat puree...it tastes like a refreshing PinaColda :-). He absolutely LOVES it...I do too, but it has a little more calories (110 cal) and a little fat (2.5g), whereas the plain coconut water has only 60cal and 0 fat, yes, zero :-).
BTW, my husband is an avid runner who logs around 45+ miles a week and is always looking for a good drink to rehydrate and recoop after a long run. Since this stuff isn't cheap, around $1.50 a shot, he saves it for his longest runs and drinks nestle quick chocolate skim milk for his shorter runs...but the coconut water is by far his favorite treat.
Besure to chill it before drinking...not very refreshing warm :-p.
For the reviewer who didn't like it, feel free to send your case to us, we'll drink it :-).
Tastes Great and Very Refreshing! June 12, 2008

My wife has been drinking coconut water since she was little. I have never drank coconut water in my life. I originally picked up some cases of ZICO for my wife a few months ago when Amazon was running a promotion. She liked it and thought it was pretty good. I took one sip and that was all I could stand, and vowed never to try it again! My wife just recently used up all the ZICO so I came to Amazon to buy some more for her. While here, I happened to stumble across the Vita Coco brand and decided to read the customer reviews. I was very happy with what I had read, so I decided to take a chance and purchase a case. It arrived yesterday and after chilling it in the fridge for a while, I gave one to my wife to try. She let out a big MMMMM after the first sip! I was curious, so I deicided to grab my own carton and have a taste. One sip turned into two, and then three, and four, and more! I have to say, Vita Coco is a really great tasting coconut water, and I am now hooked! This may sound silly, but for me the package graphics actually make the beverage more enjoyable!
I originally bought this for my wife, but now I'm back here on Amazon and ready to purchase some more before I end up drinking it all myself! Let me just finish by saying that for someone who had never drank coconut water in his life, and could not tolerate a second sip of ZICO, you can believe that Vita Coco is a great tasting, quality brand that I'm sure you will just love! I only wish it was a little cheaper on the wallet, but it's still worth it in my book. Guess that will make me savor it even more, like a fine wine. I just finished one carton about 10 minutes ago, and now after writing this review, I'm ready to grab another one!
For the record, my intent is not to bash ZICO at all. My wife still likes the taste of it and would still buy it. You may have tried it and like it as well, and that's good! I'm just giving my opinion as someone who has never drank coconut water at all, and found Vita Coco to be the most enjoyable to me. If you're not sure, then give them both a try and see what you think. But if you are new to coconut water, I think you would enjoy the Vita Coco brand and should probably give that a try first.
