How to choose fresh and delicious pineapple
- When buying pineapple, you should choose those with a round shape and short fruit shape as these will have more flesh than others.
- Besides, pineapples that are bright yellow and have a natural fragrance will be fully ripe fruits, which are sweeter and more appealing.
- From the stem to the end or a few slightly green spots indicate the fruit is just ripe, with a sweet taste. When pressing your finger into the skin, it should not dent but have a certain firmness.
- Avoid choosing fruits that have no aroma, or have a scent like fermentation. Because they may not be ripe or may be overripe, which will affect the drink when made.

-

-
You should choose coconuts with a uniform green shell, not bruised as these are fresh, sweet coconuts. Do not buy those that have turned yellow or brown, these coconuts have been stored for a long time, the coconut water will not be good.
-
Pay attention to the coconut stem, the stem should be fresh, firmly attached to the coconut, only buy if it looks sturdy. Do not buy coconuts with weak stems, bubbling or leaking water. It is possible that the coconut has been injected with chemicals, drinking will not be good.
-
If buying peeled coconuts, pay attention to choose those with soft skin that has been in the air for a long time and has changed color. Avoid coconuts that remain bright white after being left out for a while, as they may have been soaked in chemicals.
