Why the hell do we call it “coconut water” like it’s some holy, saint-blessed hydration straight from God’s urethra? It’s juice. It comes out of a fucking fruit. If it squirted out of an orange we wouldn’t sit there pretending it’s “orange water.” But no, slap “water” on the label. It’s not magical glacier piss. It’s coconut juice. Stop jerking off the branding like it’s some enlightened nectar for smug wellness cultists.


Not really, mainly due to how the liquid is stored.
I generally think that juice is within the flesh of the fruit that needs to be squeezed out. I can’t drill a hole in a watermelon to drink watermelon juice, but I can drill a hole in a coconut and drink the coconut water.
