#HolyNectar: Reasons Why Coconut Water Is All Your Body Needs This Summer

Coconut water aka tender coconut water is the holy grail you need this summer. Being a Chennai kid, this was one of the things my mom often forced me to drink and until recently, I didn’t fully understand the implications of this wonderful drink. But now that the benefits of this spectacular glass of water have been made clear to me, I’ve made sure to have one every single day! And here are the benefits I couldn’t wait to share with you.

1. Hydrating AF
