I’ve often heard stories about people who have had the misfortune of being stranded somewhere in the tropics, and surviving on nothing more than coconuts/coconut milk/coconut water. And after doing a little research, I was surprised to find out that one cup-full of coconut water contains more electrolytes than most sports drinks and more potassium than a banana.  More interesting facts about coconut water can be read here.

For those who would rather watch a short video about the amazing benefits of coconut water, in this case ‘zico’ coconut water, the video below explains a lot.

The official website for zico can be found Here.

This is truly an amazing drink! So much so, it inspired me to make this little animation!

ENJOY!
