Coconut water or as we call it here in Bocas del Toro
Panama - Agua de pipa is the liquid inside young
coconuts. As the green coconut matures into the brown
coconut one eats, this liquid is partially absorbed
into the flesh.
Agua de pipa has long been a popular drink here in Panama. Coconut water is naturally fat-free and low calorie (46 calories per 8 ounces).
You can buy agua de pipa that has been freshly packaged in many places here in Panama. Outside of the tropical environs you can buy coconut water in cans or tetra paks. Coconut water is often marketed as a sports drink because of its high potassium and mineral content.
In Bocas del Toro Panama you can get coconut water in the most sustainable packaging there is – the coconut. Once you let us know you are interested we will have one of our employees get you a fresh coconut and you can watch how the indigenous people prepare a coconut for drinking and eating.
In emergency situations coconut water has been used as a liquid in intravenous therapy due to its sterility, pH, mineral, and sugar content.
Doctors here in Panama often recommend it for dehydration therapy as it is a natural form of electrolyte replacement.
