Kokomio's Drinks Feature Coconut Water, Pulp & Functional Benefits
Laura McQuarrie — April 17, 2019 — Lifestyle
Kokomio is a line of high pressure processed (HPP) whole coconut beverages that are packed with ingredients that provide functional benefits. The brand's drinks are produced in Mexico and are offered in flavors like Whole Coconut + Cold Brew Coffee, Whole Coconut + Hemp and Whole Coconut + Probiotics, each of which features a base of organic coconut water and pulp that's enriched with energizing organic cold brew coffee, protein-packed organic hemp or probiotics for bolstered gut health. Although the coconut beverages are made with pulp, they are said to be more like juices than smoothies.
Each of the functional coconut drinks provides a different benefit, making the Whole Coconut + Hemp ideal for supporting muscle growth after physical activity and exercise and the Whole Coconut + Probiotics a "non-kombucha way to improve gut health."
