I've had coconut milk to bake with but not the water. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/coconut-water#post-72765 Fri, 10 Feb 2012 23:22:24 +0000 SAHM0811 72765@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Love coconut water. We buy it in bulk. I especially drank it a lot when pregnant and when in labor! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/coconut-water#post-72762 Fri, 10 Feb 2012 23:10:24 +0000 carrieknitscake 72762@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Cchoi4: Personally, VitaCoco is more tasty with pineapple and tropical fruit flavors. I never liked Zico that much. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/coconut-water#post-72756 Fri, 10 Feb 2012 22:37:46 +0000 Cchoi4 72756@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've tried Zico coconut water (bought from Whole Foods) bc I thought it sounded great! But it turned out to be awful. Is that a bad brand? (It was on sale). It made me heave a little. I'll have to try the Naked version. I love coconutty drinks so I was disappointed when I didn't like it :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/coconut-water#post-72725 Fri, 10 Feb 2012 21:07:58 +0000 heffalump 72725@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've never tried it. But I usually only like to drink water with no lemon, no flavor. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/coconut-water#post-72683 Fri, 10 Feb 2012 19:48:38 +0000 cyneswith 72683@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I LOVE CocoLibre! Kroger also sells a form of coconut water, but there are chunks of coconut in there, which kind of kills it for me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/coconut-water#post-72668 Fri, 10 Feb 2012 18:57:07 +0000 mrsjazz 72668@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@betsyboop: I started drinking it for the same reason! My prenatal yoga teacher recommended it and it works like a charm. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/coconut-water#post-72667 Fri, 10 Feb 2012 18:56:58 +0000 cyndistar3 72667@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Is it different than the stuff that comes straight out of a fresh coconut? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/coconut-water#post-72665 Fri, 10 Feb 2012 18:53:55 +0000 betsyboop 72665@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I buy VitaCoco at Costco too, and have been drinking it every day during pregnancy as I've started to get leg cramps in the middle of the night. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/coconut-water#post-72662 Fri, 10 Feb 2012 18:41:30 +0000 banana 72662@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wow, I guess alot of people like it. I'm def gonna give it another try once this nausea is full gone. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/coconut-water#post-72661 Fri, 10 Feb 2012 18:40:46 +0000 carrieknitscake 72661@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love coconut water and drink it all of the time!! I drink it as an alternative to Gatorade. It's dangerous to hear that they sell it in cases at Costco. I may just have my parents pick me up some when I see them next! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/coconut-water#post-72620 Fri, 10 Feb 2012 17:32:40 +0000 mrsjazz 72620@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only like the flavored ones and have only tried Zico and Vitacoco. I drink one instead of a sports drink when I'm feeling super thirsty and get tired of drinking water all the time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/coconut-water#post-72573 Fri, 10 Feb 2012 16:14:42 +0000 Maysprout 72573@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup we all (including LO) like them. At one of the stores here coconuts are only $1 so we just buy them and drink the water and make coconut milk </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/coconut-water#post-72561 Fri, 10 Feb 2012 15:58:48 +0000 chopsuey 72561@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@banana: The container I'm drinking from is 11.2 ounces and I'm getting sick of it already. I think a 4 ounce container would be perfect. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/coconut-water#post-72557 Fri, 10 Feb 2012 15:57:01 +0000 banana 72557@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I tried it once when I was dealing with morning sickness (because I heard it was good for nausea) and I almost yacked just smelling it! It smelled like dirty laundry water to me. But I'm gonna give it another shot once my nausea goes away completely. I tried real coconut juice once and I liked it. But the coconut water was weird to me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/coconut-water#post-72529 Fri, 10 Feb 2012 15:44:38 +0000 chopsuey 72529@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Andrea: I don't.. but it's nice tasting. I don't think I could drink it every day. But it's a nice treat. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/coconut-water#post-72527 Fri, 10 Feb 2012 15:44:05 +0000 Andrea 72527@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I buy cases of Vitacoco at Costco. I don't know if the Naked one tastes the same. Do you know? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/coconut-water#post-72522 Fri, 10 Feb 2012 15:42:22 +0000 chopsuey 72522@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wow! I just tried Naked Coconut Water for the first time! It's refreshingly delicious!<br /> Have you tried it? </p>
