Default Coconut water

Anyone know where u can find any non concentrated coconut water ? I know Safeway used to have zico brand but I can't find em anywhere, they have Zola which is concentrated.

I know the Asian stores carry some but then it has added sugars and pulp which I don't want.

Any suggestions?

TNT supermarket have ones that are 100% natural and no added sugar. Also 7-eleven have ones called "Thirsty Buddha", which imo is the best tasting one out there but is $3+ per pop.

Costco has 12 packs for around $12. It really is a hangover helper. I wouldnt say it kills hangovers, but man - it takes a big dent out of the headaches.

Rockstar Recovery is where it's at for hangover remedies. The lemonade one tastes pretty good for an energy drink.

The trouble is not that players have sex the night before a game. It's that they stay out all night looking for it.

There’s no convincing evidence to suggest that coconut water is a measurably superior beverage for hydration. Coconut water has no magical properties which make it more effective or superior than water or sports drinks when rehydrating. Having said that, many love the taste of coconut water. As a low calorie option, it may be preferred by some over sports drinks with more carbohydrate. Or you can stick with zero-calorie water, and eat something to replenish your electrolytes. Coconut water, or any other beverage, it doesn’t seem to matter for hydration.

The magic ingredient in coconut water that helps with hangovers is H20.

And salts, the best hangover cure is one of those Electrolyte tablets and water.
