August Flavor of the Month - Young Coconut

ISSUE 16 / AUGUST 2011

 

Young Coconut

Young Coconut is a coconut that is harvested before it is fully mature. Generally, they are six to nine months old and their small, green appearance looks very different than the brown, husky versions that we envision dangling from a tropical tree. What is most unique about Young Coconut is how incredibly healthy and tasty it is. Comax Flavors Young Coconut captures the sweet, smooth, and mild flavor of this delicious fruit of the coconut palm.

 

Health Benefits

Coconut water is an incredible superfood filled with vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, amino acids, enzymes and electrolytes. It is effective in relieving dehydration, fatigue, constipation and other digestive problems. Also, the coconut is a natural water filter so its beneficial liquid is purified and sterilized right in the nut.

 

Forever Young

As the coconut matures, the nutrient-rich water is replaced by coconut meat. Therefore, the young variety is the most healthful. In addition, the Young Coconut’s tender flesh is softer and sweeter than its mature counterpart and doesn’t have the same dairy mouthfeel. It’s no wonder its popularity continues to grow. Comax Flavors Natural Young Coconut Flavor is water soluble and a great addition to beverages. Young Coconut – proof that sometimes maturity is overrated.
