COCONUT WATER Coconut water concentrate and coconut water (single strength) are two of the many types of products supplied by iTi Tropicals. Fruit Overview: Coconuts are the fruit of the coconut palm, native to countries such as Vietnam, Thailand, Sri Lanka, India, The Philippines, Indonesia and Malaysia. They can also be found throughout South and Central America and the Caribbean. While the coconut is a simple dry nut composed of inner fibers, inside lies white, fleshy edible coconut meat, along with refreshing coconut water. The coconut palm has been called the “tree of life” because it offers a source of food, drink, oil, medicine, fiber, timber, thatch, mats, fuel, and domestic utensils for the local populations where it is grown. While coconuts have many uses including pure coconut, coconut cream, and coconut oil, coconut water is among the most popular. Coconut water is naturally filtered for nine months through the dense fibers of the coconut creating a nutritious, pure, and refreshing isotonic beverage that can be mixed with just about any other flavor or fruit without dominating the taste or color. Food Application: Coconut water, (also called coconut juice) is not only refreshing and cool, it has five essential electrolytes, including more potassium than a banana. It has no added sugars, fat, cholesterol or preservatives, and is significantly lower in calories than many other juices. Because coconut wa- ter is 100% juice and is extremely versatile, it can stand alone as a refreshing drink, or it can be blended. It can be the base of tropical drinks, teas, coffee, sauces, cocktails, smoothies, and can even be used as a cooking medium, broth, or marinade. Additionally, coconut water is regarded as a natural sports drink because it helps to replace lost electrolytes from exercise or illness. Available Product: iTi offers single strength coconut water, coconut water concentrate and organic coconut water concentrate. The products are 100% natural and GMO free. They do not contain any artificial color, flavors, or preservatives. All are processed in FDA registered facilities, which are HACCP and Kosher-certified.
