I like to switch up my drinking habits. Outside of just drinking water, tea, veggie fruit juices, and kombucha, I drink coconut water and love to add it to my smoothies. Drinking coconut water has so many healing properties and health benefits. If you don't like the taste of coconut water by itself you can add it to your smoothies. All coconut waters are not created equal there are some who's nutritional value just doesn't hold up. 🔻Avoid ones that are heat pasteurized, made from concentrate, have additives like sugar, non-organic, and are GMO.🔻 ✨Best coconut water brands are: Suja, Juice Press, Vital Juice, Unoco, Harmless Harvest, Liquitera, Exotic Superfoods.
