Each container is equivalent of 220 fluid ounces (1.71875 gallons) of fresh coconut water. That’s a lot of coconut water and you get two containers so let’s double that 220 fluid ounces so that wit a second let me pull out my calculator (3.4375 gallons) now that’s value.
How much Coconut water do I get per serving of Fresh on Demand’s Coconut Water Powder?

Tote in your backpack, purse or gym bag and combine with your water bottle.
Add to smoothies for a tropical taste.
Add to soups or stir-fries for a tropical or Asian twist.

Drink when you’re dehydrated or at risk for becoming dehydrated, for example while backpacking for several days.
Drink during other times when your electrolytes are low (such as after fever).
Where do you get your coconuts from?
Our organic coconuts are fresh young and green from Thailand. Green is basicly unripe, and unripe usually means nutrient levels haven’t peaked yet. Coconuts are special actually impressive nutrient levels during both stages of their lifespan, however the difference is where they keep the nutrients.
Mature coconuts have nutritious white flesh but a small volume of water and a low nutrition value in that water. Young coconuts, on the other hand, have sparse inner flesh but abundant, electrolyte-rich water — up to several cups. That’s why we only use young coconuts to harvest coconut water.
Let’s talk how’s it’s process?
We cold-press the coconuts to collect the fresh, sweet water inside within hours of harvesting. Cold-pressing is a juicing technique that uses physical force alone to press out the liquid instead of extracting it via chemical treatments or by turning the liquid into a concentrate using extremely high, nutrient-killing temperatures.
After the coconuts are cold-pressed, The liquid is freeze immediately, Then ship the frozen liquid to our processing facilities in the northwest United States, let it thaw and then dehydrate it once it has become liquid again.
But doesn’t dehydration degrade nutrient quality, too?
Not our method. We’ve ditched the high-heat techniques of the past and created a specialty method that evaporates water molecules using natural light. Thanks to our gentle technique, the nutrients in coconut water are locked in at the moment of dehydration and stay that way for years. With Fresh on Demand’s Coconut Water Powder, you’re getting the same nutrition levels the coconuts had just hours after being harvested.
