7 Must Try Coconut Water before summer ends!

 Autumn has quietly set in. We are still battling it out with the pandemic. The weather has all gone crazy. 

It was scorching hot in the day and pounding sleet and rain through the night. Even though we are at home, there seems to be no escape from colds with these extreme temperatures

During the day, my chief hack was sipping coconut water.

I bought them by the dozens and chilled them in the fridge. I take the pulp free version as the feeling was smoother. 

When I lost my appetite during the extremely hot afternoons, I will drink cans of coconut juice. With the natural sugars, it tastes refreshing! An added bonus, it staves off the heat!
