What We Make
Have a question or concern about Vita Coco? We want to hear from you. Just fill out the form below and we'll get back to you in a hurry. Or, if you’d prefer, check out our FAQ to see if your query is covered.
Can you tell me more about where you get your hemp from?
Gladly. Our suppliers source organically-grown hemp from Colorado. The whole plant is used to extract hemp oil, which is then further turned into a unique blend for Vita Coco Infused.
What is Broad Spectrum Hemp?
Broad-spectrum is a hemp extract that has 0.0% THC and is packed with beneficial cannabinoids and phytonutrients. Translation: everything works in harmony to help deliver soothing benefits that aid in the reduction of stress and anxiety — without the high.
So will Vita Coco Infused get me...you know...high?
Nope. No way. Not a chance. Our beverage is made with broad-spectrum hemp, which contains 0.0% THC, so there is absolutely no psychoactive effect.
Where can I buy Vita Coco Infused?
Vita Coco Infused is available at Holland and Barrett and Planet Organic.
How did you decide on the Vita Coco Infused flavours you have?
We know they’re a little different from what you expect from a coconut water company. We wanted Vita Coco Infused to take people ‘there’ while still being completely delicious. The idea was to make a drink that was earthy, yet refreshing. We tried putting potting soil in lemonade but that didn’t work. Hannah in marketing had the brilliant idea of combining citrus with spice — and that’s how we got our flavors! Thanks, Hannah!
Does the hemp have any certifications I should know about?
Our hemp is Non-GMO, Kosher, Halal and Gluten-Free. It’s also manufactured in the USA and organically grown.

Does Vita Coco need to be refrigerated? How long does Vita Coco last?

When should I drink Vita Coco?
Our coconut water is good anytime and anywhere! But for starters, we find that most people like coconut water: on the go; before, during, or after exercise; as a mixer; after a night out; in smoothies; and with meals!
How much Vita Coco should I drink?
Your consumption of our coconut water should be based on personal lifestyle, diet activity level, and always with moderation in mind!
Is it safe to drink Vita Coco while pregnant?
Yes! Pregnant women can drink our coconut water, because it’s flash pasteurized (learn more about flash pasteurization in the OUR PRODUCTS section). If you have an allergy or health condition, check with a physician before consuming Vita Coco just to be safe!
What is coconut water?
Coconut water is the clear, fat-free liquid that’s inside a young coconut when you crack it open! It’s naturally rich in electrolytes, especially potassium. It’s low in calories, cholesterol-free, and tastes great!

You bet! All of our products are gluten-free!

How many calories are in Vita Coco coconut water?

Is Vita Coco kosher?
Yup—kosher and K-star certified.
Are Vita Coco beverages pasteurized?
Yes! After coconuts are harvested, washed, and cracked open, the liquid inside is flash-pasteurized and then packaged in a Tetra Pak. Flash pasteurization helps preserve the best natural flavor and nutrients, kill potentially harmful bacteria, and make Vita Coco coconut water shelf-stable for up to 12 months.
How do you read the best-by date?
Not the way you think—the best-by date, found at the top of every Tetra Pak, is dated 12 months from the production date, and is read as such: day/month/year.
What is Tetra Pak?
Tetra Pak is a BPA-free, eco- and socially-responsible form of packaging made from wood fiber, a sustainable resource. Tetra Pak keeps our coconut water fresh and gives it a shelf life of up to 12 months. For more information, visit www.tetrapak.com.
Does Vita Coco add sugar to its coconut water?
Yes, a little bit—hear us out! Here’s why: coconuts can vary in taste, so we add less than 1% natural fruit sugar to our non-flavored coconut water. That helps to standardize the taste and sweetness levels regardless of harvest, time of year, or country of origin.
What does “never from concentrate” mean?
Some other brands use coconut water from concentrate—meaning, reconstituted with water and additives before packaging—but, never Vita Coco. We’re committed to using only the freshest coconut water possible, giving us the right to say we’re never from concentrate!
My coconut oil melted! Can I still use it?
Yup! Coconut oil is still safe to use even if it’s melted, as long as it’s still within shelf life.

What does “unrefined” mean?

How long does it take to grow a coconut palm tree?
So, here’s the thing: you can have a fully-grown palm tree in as soon as three years (yay!)--but, it won’t start to yield coconuts until somewhere around it’s sixth birthday (aww!). In fact, it can take as long as 15 years for a palm tree to really get going on coconut growth! And if you’re planning on growing one indoors, make sure you have a skylight, because these guys can grow up to 98 feet tall.
