In other parts of the world, you may know it as coconut water, and it is more typically available in cans. If you are particularly lucky, you will find it simple without sugar or high fructose corn syrup added.<\/p>\n
In reality, the way to drink it is straight from the coconut or from someone who has freshly bottled it \u2013 drinking it in the tropics is optional but preferred!<\/p>\n
Be aware that this natural beverage will change your world. Pipa fria is particularly well suited for the warm climes of Costa Rica. Here in the tropics both tourist and locals alike can quickly become dehydrated and not even know it. Skip the Gatorade and head for pipa fria, which is full of electrolytes and packed with calcium, magnesium, and potassium. The water is low in calories and fat and has no cholesterol.<\/p>\n
Research shows that drinking coconut water improves immunity, increases metabolism, and improves your HDL cholesterol. It also works as an intestinal regulator. It also helps you better absorb the nutrients in your food.<\/p>\n
A few more interesting facts: Coconut water is used as an alternative to breast milk in many tropical countries and during World War II in the Pacific theater coconut water was used as an alternative for saline infusions and is still used today in emergencies.<\/p>\n
Or, if you are feeling adventurous, climb a tree and cut your green or yellow coconut. Find a machete to open it and drink your own. One warning: it isn\u2019t as easy as it looks \u2013 the climbing or the opening! Why not skip the hard work and take it easy?
