My Thoughts:

Do you love coconut water?  I was first introduced to it back when my husband and I started dating in college.  He is from El Salvador, and grew up drinking it with his family.  And, when he came to the US, he continued to drink it, but with disappointment, as the canned coconut waters in the grocery stores were not really "real" and were filled with added sugar to give it the sweetness one would expect from coconut water.  Over the years, when new coconut water products hit the market, I make an effort to pick them up for him to try, in hopes that one will be like the water he used to drink in his country.  So, when I heard about Taste Nirvana and their coconut water drinks, I couldn't wait to share them with him and see what he thought.

Because I have never visited his country, I am only used to the coconut water drinks sold here in the US.  I find many to be super sweet, with the added sugar, or filled with unnecessary preservatives.  I, also, couldn't wait to sample these drinks and see how they compared to other coconut water I have tried over the year.

So, when my husband and I sat down the other night, after putting the kids to, I surprised him and showed him the 3 bottles of Taste Nirvana coconut water for us to try.  You should have saw the big smile on his face.  On this particular night, it was 80 degrees and he was looking for a healthy and refreshing way to cool down.  As we tried the 3 flavors, he said it reminded of him of sitting on his porch, having a cold glass of coconut water, on those hot days.  When I asked him what he thought of these drinks, I was surprised to hear what thought.  He said he was amazed at how good and "natural" the coconut water tasted.  Out of the three flavors, we both loved the Real Coconut Water with Pulp, as we liked being able to chew actual pieces of fresh coconut.  Compared to other coconut waters I have tried over the years, this one really did taste like it was made from real coconuts and didn't have added sugars or preservatives.  They were so delicious, it was hard to save some for Savannah to try.  But, before my husband reached for another sampling of the coconut water with pulp, I snatched it up and put in the refrigerator.  When I finally gave it to Savannah the next day with her lunch, she let me know what she thought of it, just by her licking her lips, saying "Yum" and asking for more.

After years of searching for coconut water that is not only delicious, but healthy to drink, we have finally found it with Taste Nirvana.  If you are looking for a healthy alternative to soda and sugary fruit juices, why not try out their coconut waters today?  And, then head back here and let me know what you thought of them.
