We picked up this little tool at the local health food store. It sure makes opening a coconut a lot easier. Fresh coconut water is so refreshing and has many health benefits, one being stabilizing electrolytes.
As you can see, you peel the cap of the coconut off first, then push the opener down as far as you can, twisting to open a hole. You may have to jab it down a few more times to get to the water.
I like to drink the fresh coconut water with a hint of lime juice. It’s so delicious!
