There are many claims that coconut water is the latest and greatest thing to drink. Some say you should substitute it for sports drinks like Gatorade and Powerade, as it is high in electrolytes. Others say that there are no benefits to drinking it, and that you're better off just drinking water.
(See the video below for a few quick facts about coconut water.)
Regardless, I decided to give it a try. I tried the Zico brand, and I have one thing to say: blech! It was so gross! To me, it tasted like someone walked around Target barefoot for 3 hours, then stuck their big toe in my water. FOUL! Perhaps it was the brand? Maybe all coconut water tastes that way? To all of you coconut water drinkers out there: Is there a trick to drinking this stuff and enjoying it?
