Description on can:
The word "pineapple" is from a Caribbean word meaning excellent fruit, (And this anti-oxidant fruit actually lives up to its name.) Team that up with the life anhancing, electrolyte-replacing, 100% pure young coconut water and you get a very powerful and refreshing tropical sensation. That's right - in addition to having 15 times the potassium of regular sports drinks, plus calcium and magnesium, VC with Pineapple also makes a delicious cocktail. Pina colada anyone?

Review:
The pinaplle pops out whereas the coconut is tough to find. It is very refreshing drink. Do not pour it in a clear glass because the coconut seems to gel in blobs which are very noticable when drinking but not pretty to look at. The instructions say to shake well, and I did that and there were still too many floaties. I do not like the box design, I am placing my mouth all over the exterior of the box just so that I do not spill down my chin. Who knows what happend during shipping to the exterior of the box. I once saw the workers at Costco Walking on top of the beer boxes. The dirt of their shoes was definetly entering the box.... who knows with the Vita Coco? This drink gets a 5 based upon the container and the coconut blobs. The taste was not strong enough to move the score up. The concept of coconut and pinapple is a good one and I will look for another solution.
