Coconut Water - The Natural Sports Drink

 

Coconut water, also known as neera, has emerged as a popular beverage for quenching thirst in the hot Middle Eastern weather.

There is a large market for tender coconuts in cities across West Asia. Street vendors sell fresh coconut water throughout the day. Refreshment stalls in malls, shops and public places also stock coconuts and coconut water cartons. Its isotonic properties make coconut water a suitable post-workout drink which is driving sales in gyms.

 

Besides direct consumption, coconut water is gaining use in fruit-based beverages and flavored drinks by local food companies. It is seen as a healthy alternative to sugary sodas especially among health-conscious youth and children.
