A 330ml serving of king coconut water from Ancient Nutra. King coconut, called thambili in Sinhala, is a variety of coconut native to Sri Lanka with bright orange nuts, grown mainly for its water rather than its flesh.
Its water is sweeter and slightly nuttier than that of the ordinary green coconut. Roadside thambili stalls are a familiar sight across the island, and this pack offers the same drink ready to pour. The current listing states it has no artificial sweeteners or preservatives added.
