But what exactly is coconut water? Coconut water is the juice found inside young, green coconuts. It is packed with a plethora of health benefits that have made it a popular choice for hydration and wellness enthusiasts around the globe.
What makes coconut water so special?

- Over 95% of coconut water is water, making it an excellent hydrating option.
- It’s rich in potassium, calcium, magnesium, antioxidants, amino acids, and cytokinins.
- Just one cup of coconut water contains more potassium than a medium-sized banana.
