what is difference between this drink and coconut water....does label show how much sugar
83328
The ingredients listed are: young coconut water, and young coconut pulp. So it looks like it's the same thing, that they are just calling it coconut juice on the front of the can. Label shows 14g of sugar per 8 ounces. This can holds 17.5 oz.

There is no sugar added.....Only natural sugar from Coconut, it tastes like coconut juice from a coconut you chopped off a tree, broke top and drank from it. The difference is, this is coconut water, they call it juice. There is nothing added, just young coconut juice. Hope this was helpful!

no difference. Some people just call it coconut water and call it coconut juice. At least this is what I have read in my research. also there is no added sugar. Just what is in the natural coconut.

Only 2 ingredients: natural coconut water and pulp. 14 g of natural sugars. I love this stuff and the pricing is right. 60 calories per serving (2 in a can) 78 mg sodium per serving. Potassium isn't listed, but coconut juice usually has 2-300 mg potassium. This drink satisfies a desire for sweetness, though it doesn't taste very sweet. Highly recommended and more flavorful that most coconut waters.

Not really. If you are used to putting sugar in your coffee & want the same amount of sweetness it gives you, you will not be happy with the substitution. It had a true coconut meat flavor, similar to coconut milk.

I use a lot of organic coconut palm sugar...I have lost 15 pounds going off white sugar...I used this in the beginning..and then went to buying 5# Bags from our local Quail cove farm...If I do not stir it well there are little floaters...But the benifits of this products with minerals and vitamins and less fat and calories, perk the taste test for me...I also use a coconut milk to sweeten and I am now using body lab to lose weight and using Silk Coconut unsweetened milk...and have lost more weight..My blood Pressure is down and my doctor is Happy with the weight loss, remarking several times about the change in me....STICK WITH THIS..or any other Brand...the better the product the more intense the flavor...I also buy the pre filled packets to take in my purse for when I buy coffee out! There are certain brands of this for cooking, and certain brands of it for Quick dissolving..if you purchase in the 5 pound bag, it hardens quickly, so you may want too purchase an air tight container...it will last you months if you only use it for coffee and save money in the long run...I paid 25.00 for 5 pounds..or there about...

No, the benefits are different. The sugar comes fron the nectar of the palm tree flowers, not coconuts. The primary benefit is that it is lower glycemic sweetner than cane sugar.

No. It is all natural coconut water. There is a company that makes powdered coconut water that you add to to water. But this is regular pure coconut water.

It's my favorite brand of Stevia, not coincidentally the healthiest (both stevia & inulin from chicory root are actually good for us). But Stevia is a hundred times sweeter than sugar, so "less is more" w/ stevia--use very little or it becomes bitter :) I also use it w/ maple syrup or coconut sugar to use less of those more costly & higher glycemic sweeteners.

Must be an error by the manufacturer. This product is just whole milk with the water taken out...so 2 Tbp of this will have the same nutritional content as 1 cup of milk. If you look on milk, one serving has 12g of carbs (at least that's what the 2% currently in my fridge says) and it is all sugars...lactose one would assume. This is not a carb-free or sugar-free (or fat free) product...merely water-free :) ...the manufacturer should probably fix this.

Sugar is the second ingredient after coconut, so I am going to say it's not naturally present. :)

I just checked the ingredients, no it doesn't. The difference between the two sodas, is that this one tastes like coca cola, the other one tastes like artificial sweeter.

I use coconut sugar as it is vegan unlike cane sugar which can be processed using bone char...

That is a good question which I have not investigated nor compared the sugar content to other brands. I do know that the company states that they use coconuts from a certain area of the Philippines which are the sweetest: "Our coconuts are harvested from the prized Nakorn Pathom province, where they grow larger and taste sweeter than from any other region in the world." It is also a large can (16.2 oz)and contains quite a bit of coconut meat and has 2 gm of fiber. I certainly hope that they are not adding sugar on the sly! You might want to contact the company to discuss this. If you find out, please left us know. I am pre-diabetic and am trying to keep my sugar consumption down.

Yes there is an expiration date for the coconut water. Usually it is 1-2 months out from when I receive it and that is not a problem since people around my house drink it up fairly fast.

There is no added sugar; however, there is more natural sugar than other brands. I believe it's from the sheer quantity of pulp in each can. Someone else said it may be the region the coconuts are from. In any case, no added sugar and the best tasting coconut water/pulp I've ever had.

Check website exact ingriedients. It has a mild sweetness but it isn't sweet like tonic water. They use can sugar or agave If I remember correctly when they batch make this.

I think you'll need less of it, personally. I find it sweeter than regular sugar. Perhaps, 1 tsp of regular sugar equals 1/2-1/4 tsp coconut sugar. But, I've been off white sugar for a number of years. I was using Stevia-cane before I tried this and I prefer the coconut sugar taste and the fact that less is needed for me.

They claim no additives but it is flash pasteurized. Coconut water has some natural sugars. All of us, but especially those with high blood pressure, need 4,700 Mgs of potassium a day, which is almost impossible to ingest in food form. Vitacoco has 620 Mgs. In 11.1 fluid ounces for only 60 calories. Four of these containers a day plus my food keeps my blood pressure stable and normal. Even a single day off it and my BP rises. It also helps to take a liquid calcium/ magnesium supplement with it. You can get an unpasteurized, frozen version called Nature Field. I'll bet it is more expensive, and harder to store but better for being unpasteurized. I take no medications. Always find natural remedies. Almost ninety. Love, researching natural remedies.

Sorry, I'm not sure. I drink it to keep my weight up, although it isn't high in fat or sugar.
