King coconuts grow at the tops of 20 to 30-meter-tall palm trees, which are a bit shorter than other coconut palm varieties.

They grow in clusters of up to 20 nuts, growing from smaller branches on a large stalk. King coconuts have an elongated oval shape, much like a football, with a pointed end opposite of the stem. The skin has a bright orange hue, and it may have the occasional dark mark or abrasion. King coconuts measure from 20 to 30 centimeters in length. They are harvested at around 7 to 8 months of maturity, which is about twice the age of a typical, young green coconut. 

Nutritional Value

King coconuts are a rich source of B-complex vitamins, amino acids, and electrolytes, which are minerals like potassium, calcium, sodium, magnesium, chloride and phosphate. The liquid within the King coconut has more magnesium and calcium than an orange and more potassium than a banana.

It will naturally replenish the body’s loss of electrolytes by sweating during exercise or any other type of exertion. This helps prevent dehydration and fatigue. King coconuts contain bioactive enzymes which aid in digestion and help with the body’s metabolism.

Studies have found that water has antioxidant properties. The liquid contains trace amounts of natural sucrose, fructose and glucose. Heating or any type of temperature pasteurization can reduce the nutritional benefits of King coconut water.

Applications

King coconuts are used primarily for their “milk” or the liquid contained within its rind.

To open a King coconut, cut the stem end with a sharp knife and cut around the stem end, at an angle, creating a bevelled edge.

Cut (or hack) across the white layer of the pith until the layer is thin enough to poke a hole into it for extracting the liquid. Once the liquid has been removed, the inside of the rind has a soft, somewhat gelatinous layer that can be eaten.

King coconut water is used to rehydrate, refresh and is best when drunk straight from the coconut. It can be added to smoothies or fruit juices. Store uncut King coconuts on the counter until ready to use. King coconut water can be kept for up to three days in the refrigerator.
