You can use fresh coconut juice from a young coconut, if you like. Cucumber hydrates, coconut water contains electrolytes to quench your thirst, and lime is an alkaliser.

Cucumber, lime & Coconut water

PREP TIME 10 MINUTES SERVES 2

1 Lebanese cucumber (130g), chopped coarsely

3 cups (750ml) coconut water

2 tablespoons lime juice

1 Push cucumber through a juice extractor into a jug. Stir in coconut water and lime juice.

2 Serve topped with crushed ice and mint sprigs, if you like.

 

PG 20 Cauliflower & tofu red curry

BUYING

When selecting a coconut, pick it up and give it a little shake - you want to hear the coconut water moving around inside. It should feel heavy for its size and sound hollow when tapped. Take a look at the eyes, they should dry and free of mould.

STORING

A fresh coconut can be stored at room temperature for up to 2 months or refrigerated for up to 4 months.
