The World’s First High Protein Coconut Water Drink

In the throes of last year’s party season, we shared the five healthiest hangover cures to help you get over your Christmas celebrations. Coconut water, with its high potassium and electrolyte content, was one of the most efficient of those remedies. But party season is long over, and while most people are still going strong with their ‘new year, new you’ resolutions, it seems a shame to wait another ten months before having a good reason to drink coconut water again...

Luckily, there’s a new product on the market, which might just mean you’re sipping nature’s sweetest nectar sooner than you think; CocoPro is the world’s first high protein coconut water drink, boasting a whopping 20g of the muscle-building stuff!

CocoPro is made from 100% natural ingredients, the best part of which is pure coconut water and whey protein. As such, it contains considerably less lactose than milk, has absolutely no added sugar, and is also fat, cholesterol and gluten free, making it a great option for those with certain dietary requirements. What’s more, it boasts a bounty – see what we did there? – of body-loving nutrients, including your daily requirement of vitamin C, 9 essential amino acids, 11 non-essential amino acids, and more potassium than you can shake a stick at...or will find in a banana.

To this effect, CocoPro is an ideal post-exercise drink. As former Scottish International Rugby Union player, Rory Lawson, has testified, ‘it provides the perfect combination of quality ingredients, refreshing taste and vital recovery components.’ And if it’s manly enough for a scrum-half to drink, you can bet your bottom dollar it’s manly enough for you!

Having tested CocoPro ourselves, we can confirm that it’s an extremely refreshing post-workout drink, and makes a change from some of the stodgier, chocolate-based beverages currently on the market. In fact, the only way you could make things more refreshing would be to move your work-out to a Caribbean beach, scramble up a tree afterwards, pilfer yourself a coconut, crack it in two, and mix in the whey powder yourself there and then...
