    I know coconut water is the go-to summer drink for many of us. That is because there is nothing quite as refreshing as a big, cold glass of coconut water on a hot summer’s day. Sipping on a coconut water is also just more exciting than drinking regular plain water. The subtle tropical taste is definitely way more fun.

    Ice tea is another classic, refreshing summertime drink. Freshly brewed iced green tea served with a slice of lemon is an iconic summer image. So we thought, why not combine the two tasty summer drinks and create an iced coconut green tea. Sounds pretty amazing, right? And it is!
