Nutritional content of this brand does not live up to what's on the label., August 5, 2011
This review is from: Vita Coco Coconut Water with Pineapple, 17-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 12) (Grocery)
According to an article on CNN.com on 8/5/11, the nutritional content of this brand does not live up to what is on the lable.
"Researchers at ConsumerLab.com tested the sodium, potassium, magnesium, and sugar content of three leading brands of coconut water, and they found that only one, Zico Natural, contained the stated amount for all four ingredients.
The sugar and potassium content in the other two brands, Vita Coco and O.N.E., also matched the label. But the amounts of sodium and magnesium--two nutrients key to hydration--were as much as 82% and 35% lower, respectively, than the listed amount."

Ambrosia., July 17, 2010
This review is from: Vita Coco Coconut Water with Pineapple, 17-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 12) (Grocery)
My daughter, living and working in DC this summer, introduced me to this product while home for a visit. She encouraged me to give the plain version (just pure coconut water) a chance first, and by the second container, I understood the amazing qualities of this drink. I felt so refreshed, hydrated, and healthy! I later tried the kind with pineapple, which is also delicious, but I think the plain is more effective and purely refreshing when really hot, tired and thirsty, while the sweeter fruit infused version will be amazing as part of a cocktail. Can't wait for 5:00!

Great coconut water in just the right size!, March 2, 2011
This review is from: Vita Coco Coconut Water with Pineapple, 17-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 12) (Grocery)
This has been my favorite brand of coconut water of the ones I've tried. They use real fruit juice for flavoring, as well as it tastes good.
We tried the smaller size, and they just aren't large enough to get enough water at the gym, and are not resealable.
Things I like about this:
* Perfect size for an hour long gym routine
* Resealable cap(smaller one lacks this)
* Tasty (Like a pina colada)
Negative
* Box makes it hard to get the last drops- usually end up squishing it up to get the last bit
So great coconut water, perfect size, and cheaper than buying locally at sprouts with the Amazon's 'subscribe and save'!
