This is the Summer of CoAqua. CoAqua Isn’t Just a Coconut Water — It’s a Lifestyle Brand That Disrupted the Hydration Game with Bold Flavors, Design-Forward Packaging, and a Good Mission

Ponte Vedra Beach, FL – If you're not sipping CoAqua this summer, you're behind. Period. The breakout super-premium coconut water brand that has crashed the party with a line of flavor-forward drinks that are shaking up fridges, bars, and beach bags everywhere. CoAqua isn’t here to “fit in” with the wellness crowd. It’s here to own the moment with style, soul, and serious flavor. 


“We built CoAqua to be a brand that people don’t just drink, they love,” says co-founder Justin Bruckel. “It’s premium, delicious, and way more fun than anything else on the shelf.”


Let’s get this straight: this isn’t your average coconut water. No boring cartons, no chalky aftertaste, no fake health halos. CoAqua is real, courageous, and built to lead the category.


CoAqua is the brainchild of best friends and co-founders Justin Bruckel and Anthony Cadieux II, who turned a shared obsession with wellness, flavor, and global adventure into one of the freshest beverage brands of the decade. Based in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida and making waves worldwide, CoAqua is redefining what it means to hydrate with heart. The guys finish each other’s sentences and treat everyone on their team with the joy and love they have for each other.


A Flavor for Every Mood – Six Flavors with Endless Personality:


CoAqua’s lineup reads like a curated playlist with offerings that go far beyond the traditional. The brand’s six distinctive varieties are crafted for a spectrum of lifestyles and tastes. Just pick your current vibe:


  • Still Coconut Water – Smooth, clean, and full of natural electrolytes.
  • Sparkling Coconut Water – Pop the top, lightly carbonated for a crisp, refreshing twist.
  • Citrus Circus – Zingy, zesty, and made to energize the senses.
  • Lemony Passion – Passionfruit + lemon = tropical attitude.
  • Soursop – Wild, creamy, tart and totally under-the-radar cool.
  • Espresso – Yes, coconut water with a caffeine kick. You’re welcome.

“We’re not afraid to get weird with it,” says co-founder Anthony Cadieux II. “That’s where the magic happens. People want flavor, personality, and something they can enjoy. That’s what CoAqua brings.”


From the Bar to the Beach – CoAqua’s Got Range


From wellness warriors to cocktail pros, from indie cafes to global hotel chains, CoAqua is quickly becoming the go-to beverage of summer 2025.


It is in the toolbox of top mixologists and chefs. From Coconut Espresso Martinis to Citrus Circus Spritzes, bartenders are building whole menus around this stuff. Why? Because it tastes great, it mixes like a dream, it’s got real presence, and it is certified OVK Kosher.


“Restaurants are calling us. Hotels are calling us. People want in,” says Bruckel.


Hydration With Purpose


Let’s be real: if your drink isn’t doing good, it’s already outdated. CoAqua is built on a mission to deliver delicious, nutritious, and eco-conscious beverages to thirsty humans everywhere. Sustainable sourcing. Smart packaging. Transparent values. This is what today’s consumer cares about. And CoAqua is delivering with flair.


“At the end of the day, we’re building a brand that’s about pleasure, flavor, and impact,” says Cadieux. “We’re here to play big and do good.”


CoAqua is fiercely protective of the environment using recyclable aluminum packaging and supporting local communities through partnerships with small farmers. CoAqua works closely with the Bikes For Kids Foundation, an organization that has impacted over 61,000 economically disadvantaged children and Title 1 students in hundreds of underserved elementary schools since 2002. 


They provide character building books and classroom instruction while rewarding the students’ reading and writing with a bike and helmet. It is their goal to overcome poverty and entitlement with the lesson, “Nothing is given, everything is earned.” CoAqua donates 2% of its revenue to boost confidence and aspirations among at-risk children.


THE VERDICT? COAQUA OWNS SUMMER 2025.


Fun. Smart. Flavor-packed. Values-driven. CoAqua is the drink of the season with Silicon Valley energy and Gen Z loyalty baked in.


If you haven’t tasted CoAqua yet, you’re about to.
