1
Select a Coconut
Choose a fresh young coconut, preferably with a greenish outer shell, as it has the most water and is sweetest.
2
Open the Coconut
Using a sharp knife or coconut opener, carefully cut off the top of the coconut to create an opening. Stand the coconut upright on a stable surface and make a circular cut around the top.
3
Pour the Coconut Water
Tilt the coconut over a bowl or glass to catch the water as it flows out. Use a spoon to help guide the water if necessary.
4
Add Sugar and Lime Juice (optional)
If desired, mix in sugar and lime juice to taste for added sweetness and tang. Stir well until the sugar dissolves completely.
