Loaded with all sorts of minerals (extremely high potassium content) and - contrary to what you may expect - very low in fat, coconut water is a favorite drink of Brazilians all over. It's also a multi-million dollar business, with extensive areas devoted to coconut plantations to supply thirsty beachgoers and fitness buffs (you drink it in health clubs everywhere). In the U.S., Brazilian coconut water is available in small drink cartons imported from Brazil. I keep dozens of them in my fridge...and so should you!
