## How to choose coconut water

Tasting Table and Delish set out what to look at, and the listings themselves name the label facts.

- **Read the label for added sugar.** Tasting Table praises [Harmless Harvest](https://twelvetabs.com/reviews/best-coconut-water/#pick-2) as a coconut water with no added sugar, and it notes that the only ingredient on the 365 can it tried was coconut water. The listing for the [ZICO 100% Coconut Water](https://twelvetabs.com/reviews/best-coconut-water/#pick-3) says one ingredient with nothing added.
- **Sweetness varies by brand.** Tasting Table found [Vita Coco](https://twelvetabs.com/reviews/best-coconut-water/#pick-1) so sweet that it tasted as if a spoonful of sugar had been added, while it called the [ZICO 100% Coconut Water](https://twelvetabs.com/reviews/best-coconut-water/#pick-3) subtle, with a delicate sweetness. Check the label rather than guessing.
- **Decide on pulp.** Tasting Table found other brands' pulp off-putting because it was too small or soggy, and enjoyed the pulp in the [Goya Coconut Water With Pulp](https://twelvetabs.com/reviews/best-coconut-water/#pick-5). Skip pulp if you want a clear drink.
- **Know how it is processed.** The listing for the [Harmless Harvest Organic Coconut Water](https://twelvetabs.com/reviews/best-coconut-water/#pick-2) says it is never thermally pasteurized, and Tasting Table says that bottle has to be refrigerated.
- **Expect different textures.** Delish's tasters found a pressed coconut water milky and creamy and an organic one nutty, so taste notes vary widely from brand to brand.
- **Expect a color.** Tasting Table says [Harmless Harvest](https://twelvetabs.com/reviews/best-coconut-water/#pick-2) is bright pink, with no added coloring. Amazon's summary lists color as mixed for both [Harmless Harvest](https://twelvetabs.com/reviews/best-coconut-water/#pick-2) and [ZICO](https://twelvetabs.com/reviews/best-coconut-water/#pick-3).
- **Pick a pack for how you drink it.** Single-serve bottles suit a bag or a desk, and a 33.8 fl oz carton such as the [365 Organic Coconut Water](https://twelvetabs.com/reviews/best-coconut-water/#pick-4) suits smoothies.

## What we left out, and why

We read 120 result cards across two pages of "coconut water". 24 were sponsored, and we skipped them. From the other 96 organic cards we chose 10 contenders by review count, after dropping flavored blends, infused waters and coconut juice. We read the Amazon page of each and kept five. Five were left out:

- **Vita Coco Coconut Water, Original, 33.8 Oz (Pack of 6).** The same brand and type as the [Vita Coco Organic Coconut Water](https://twelvetabs.com/reviews/best-coconut-water/#pick-1), and Amazon's summary lists durability and leakage as negatives, with broken spouts and leaking caps.
- **365 by Whole Foods Market, Coconut Water, 33.8 Fl Oz.** The same brand and type as the [365 Organic Coconut Water](https://twelvetabs.com/reviews/best-coconut-water/#pick-4), and Amazon's summary lists durability as a negative, with containers that lose their shape.
- **Amazon Grocery, Pure Coconut Water, No Added Sugar, 11.2 Fl Oz, 24 Ct.** Amazon's summary lists odor, drinkability and purchase as negatives, and a critical review describes bloated cartons.
- **C2O Original Coconut Water, 17.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 12).** Its review count shows identically on a second C2O listing in the search results, so we could not tell which product's reviews the total holds, and a critical review reports dented cans.
- **Iberia Coconut Water With Pulp, 10.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 24).** The same type as the [Goya Coconut Water With Pulp](https://twelvetabs.com/reviews/best-coconut-water/#pick-5), and Amazon's summary lists sugar content as a negative.

We did not read Wirecutter's guide in this run, so no Wirecutter pick is in the comparison table.
