What it is

Organic coconut water is the clear liquid found inside young, green coconuts. It is naturally filtered by the coconut's flesh and is known for its slightly sweet taste and hydrating properties. It is typically processed minimally to retain its natural qualities.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add organic coconut water to beverages like plant-based drinks, juices, and sports drinks for its natural sweetness, electrolytes, and refreshing flavor. It can also be used in smoothies and some dessert recipes.

Health notes

Organic coconut water is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. It is a source of electrolytes like potassium, which can help with hydration. JECFA has evaluated coconut water and did not set a numeric limit (ADI not specified). While generally considered healthy, excessive intake of any beverage can contribute to excess calorie consumption.

Allergen info

Coconut is botanically a fruit, not a tree nut, and is not one of the FDA's nine major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
