Review: C2O Coconut Water with Pulp

For coconut water brands that use cans as their package, a flavor with pulp is typically part of the lineup. C2O, however, didn't have one, which is perhaps at least part of the reason why the company expanded in this direction rather than adding flavored offerings like some of the Tetra Pak carton based brands. And while we were admittedly thinking "if you’ve had one coconut water with pulp, you’ve had them all," once we sipped the product, it was clear C2O did something slightly different.
