Phenom Natural Coconut Water




Verdict: Not recommended

Purchased: Big Lots [Greenwood, SC]
Size: 16.9 fl. oz. [500mL]
Price: $0.75 [Reduced]


  1. Canned coconut water doesn't hold up very well, it tastes weird. I know that for sure. I haven't tried coconut water in boxes though. I've had it in plastic bottles and it was fine.

    But nothing beats fresh coconut water. That never tastes salty, it's always on the mildly sweet side with a little bit of a fermented sting to it if it's from an old coconut.

    Coconut water really is a delicious and refreshing drink. I would compare it only to watermelon in that regard. It also has a lot of healthful properties. That's why the beverage market is trying to cash in on it but that freshness is an elusive property to capture.

  2. Thanks for the advice, Dawn!

    I know that there has to be something to coconut water fad. I think that I just keep getting bad examples of the stuff.

    Any suggestions on a good one to try next?

  3. Have you tried Harmless Harvest?

  4. I have not. I've been looking for it, though. If I ever come across it, I will be sure to give it a try.
