Zico Coconut Water

"For more than 4,000 years, coconut water has been revered as a natural source of nutrition, wellness, beauty and hydration. In times of famine and war, coconut water has been used as an intravenous fluid and saved many lives. It’s the only natural substance that can be safely injected into the human blood stream. Now modern science has validated its effectiveness, especially as a natural sports drink.

ZICO contains the five essential electrolytes that gives your body everything it needs to stay hydrated and perform at your best. One ZICO has more potassium than a banana – 15 times more than most sports drinks – to prevent cramping. Drink ZICO before or during a workout for the natural energy you need for optimal performance. After a workout, ZICO replenishes and re-hydrates you to speed recovery."

Never a better time to try than when it's on sale at Blush!
One of our managers said that she uses it for cooking rice, which I think is a heck of an idea. I bought a bottle the other day to try, and wasn't sold on just consuming it; however, I think once winter is over and I get back into mountain biking it would be a great alternative to sugary sports drinks (They also have a bunch of mixed drink recipes on the website, and let's be honest, that's more likely where my coconut water will end up!). Another time I have used this is when I caught the flu that's been going around... Good for replenishing those electrolytes!
Zico Coconut Water, Assorted Flavours $3.33 each, $36.78/cs. of 12.
