Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Each of these three products has a number of reviews.I don't have much to add to any of the individual reviews.Coconut water is great, if you are in the market for a case of it you already know this.But which of these three is the best?
I went around town and found 5 boxes of each of the three brands (15 total) each, with no two boxes of a the same brand coming from the same supplier.The goal was to get a wide range of product batches.This I am happy to report was pointless.All three brands produce an internally consistent product.
I then ordered a 12 pack of all three brands from Amazon.The only significant difference in packaging is that O.N.E. glues a little telescoping straw to each individual box, the other two brands do not.If you are a straw person this is a feature if not this is just more trash, you decide.The amount per container varies slightly by brand but given the price fluctuation on Amazon I don't consider the 0.1 Ozdifferences an important factor.
All three are made in Brazil, O.N.E. mentions that it is pasteurized the other two do not (nevertheless, I suspect all three are).
On pure taste, at refrigerator temperature, I found Zico to be the best (say 5/5), but only nominally better than O.N.E. (4.5/5), Vita was a distant third (3/5).Both Zico and O.N.E. taste almost exactly like drinking right from a fresh green coconut.Vita, on the other hand, has a grape aftertaste which I did not like.At room temperature the order remained the same; however, the differences in taste became more obvious: Zico (5/5), O.N.E. (4/5), Vita (2/5).Obviously all of this is subjective.
I observed the price of three on Amazon over the course of a month.Zico (~$24) was consistently more expensive than the other two (~$18-21) which traded places as the least expensive.
Considering the price and quality, O.N.E. is my choice and the brand to which I now subscribe.I consider Zico an excellent, but over priced, product and Vita an inferior product.If, however, I preferred my coconut water at room temperature I would give strong consideration to paying the extra money for Zico.If I used my coconut water as a mixer I would buy which ever one is cheapest at the time.
All three products are better than nothing (the previous option) and I am happy to see them on the market.

The Beauty of One Ingredient: Coconut Water Vita Coco is about hydration, and hydration is important no matter what you do. So while other beverages claim to be the before-, during-, and after-sports hydrator, Vita Coco is the hydrator made without added sugars, artificial sweeteners, or pick-me-ups.
In fact, the beauty of Vita Coco is that it's made with 100% pure coconut water from young, green Brazilian coconuts.
The coconuts that are used to make Vita Coco drinks are young, green coconuts -- each one cracked by hand -- from northern Brazil that have an average age of about seven months, which is the best age to extract coconut water because it's still fat-free.
Hydrate Naturally with Five Essential Electrolytes Sure, you may not be a marathon runner, a football player or Tour de France winner, but your every day life is hectic enough--you should be hydrated while you live it. Go ahead, get hydrated and remember that life is a sport!
Loaded with the five essential electrolytes that your body craves -- including potassium, sodium, magnesium, calcium and phosphorous -- Vita Coco has what it takes to keep you hydrated and refreshed throughout your busy day.
In fact, each serving of Vita Coco has more electrolytes and 15 times more potassium than the leading sports drink, and more potassium than two bananas (about 700 mg of potassium is in each 11.2-ounce serving size). These electrolytes work to keep the body cool, help boost poor circulation, replenish your body's fluids after exercising, and aid in the detoxification process while boosting your immune system.
This cholesterol- free, fat- free and pucker-free drink can also help soothe an upset stomach, and when paired with a healthy diet, it can even promote weight loss. All this from a single, natural ingredient, and without any artificial sweeteners or added sugars.
11.2-Ounce Tetra Pak with Peel-Away Opening The perfect solution for an on-the-go lifestyle, the 11.2-ounce Tetra Paks give you just the right amount of Vita Coco to get you through your next task. A convenient peel-away opening makes it easier than ever to access the great taste and benefits of Vita Coco wherever you go.
