MemberI was browsing the organic section at my grocery store, and picked up a box of coconut water. I have read about it here and there and it’s moderate health benefits, and I always love trying new things.
It’s gross. Did I get the wrong kind? It tastes like sweat in a bottle.
MemberUgh totally agree. I can’t stand it. It stinks that it’s supposed to be so good for you, and yet tastes like feet.

MemberDid you get the plain kind? The fruit flavored ones are slightly less gross.
Member@SoontobeMrsA: Yes, it is the plain kind. I saw the fruit flavored ones too – they had a mango, and a strawberry-kiwi one. Maybe I will try that? I don’t know…I’m still stuck with there 7 20oz. bottles, LOL. Maybe I can mix them with Crystal Light?
Member@Linz1231: there is a peach or mango one that is decent. You could try mixing it with Crystal Light. What do you have to lose?
MemberWhat brand did you get? I drink Zico and I LOVE it. The first taste is always weird to me, but after that is gets super delicious.
Member@Linz1231: Definitely go flavored. Also, some brands are better tasting than others. Stick to VitaCoco. It’s my coconut water brand of choice. I don’t like Zico at all, really gross.
MemberI don’t like a lot of coconut water I’ve tried, but I really love the O.N.E. brand. I even like the plain flavor! What brand did you buy? And yes – it’s an incredible, magical drink for athletes. Like gatorade, only way better in pretty much every way except for price.
MemberI saw on Man Vs. Wild that coconut water is like the most nutritious thing ever or something. Which explains why it tastes bad. LOL.
MemberI second VitaCoco. I also HATE coconut, but it’s my surefire hangover remedy.
MemberThe brand I bought is called Blue Monkey. Maybe I will try another kind when these run out. I want to like it, dammit!

Member@Linz1231: I LOVE coconut water. I suggest these brands: Zico, Blue Monkey, or Taste Nirvana.
MemberIt’s great for hangovers as well. I usually go between coconut water and Pedialyte for hangover cures.
