The coconut water.


During my many trips to Asia. Coconut water was one of my favorite drink.
Why? 
Because it was cheap, natural, they opened the coconut in front of you in the street, so it was fresh and it was tasty.

I learned after all the benefits of the coconut water: full of Vitamins E and Vitamins K, refreshing & dehydrating.

When I came back to Europe I realized more and more brands sold coconut water in TetraPack or bottle.

I check the ingredients. And they looks fine to me. Not added ingredients. Just natural. But the price is quite expensive (5-10€/L)
But what I didn’t now is the process of putting this water in TetraPacks.
In Asia they extract and filter directly the water from the coconut.
But after a few hours it begins to ferment. So they need to do and UHT process (warm it quick and cool it fast) to avoid the fermentation.
But there ALL the nutriments are lost.

So again, a nice greenwashing from the companies.

TetraPack Coconut water effect is not much more that drinking water but for 10x the price.

So if you love coconut water: Keep this happiness when you go in Asia or drink times to times a can of it just to remind your holidays.
