This is by far the best coconut juice I have ever tried - and I've tried a lot of them! Taste-wise, it's fantastic. Plus, the aseptic packaging of other coconut juices are smaller for the same price, and they're not even recyclable! I agree, the bigger the can, the better, and the better for the environment, the better for our future. Has anyone seen the new can for lime? It's yellow - now you can see the difference in packaging a little more clearly.
You were expecting thicker liquid -- as in coconut *milk*? Amy and Brian's Coconut Juice is iconic of coconut juice in general. Because this is what coconut juice *is*. And it is delicious.

a lot of water...NO flavor
First time I bought Coconut Juice and very disappointed for $1.99 a can!!! There was very little coconut flavor and it was water...I was expecting thicker liquid.
Recently I just found this coconut juice at the local food co-op. I was just tagging along with my dad because he is a health nut. He got me hooked on green tea last summer and now this summer coconut juice is going to be the ultimate refreshment for me and this brand is fantastic. I am all about big can too. It's like an extra present you find under the christmas tree.
aside from a real young cocunut, this seems to be the best of the best, if you nned to slake your thirst and honor your body at the same time. A perfect refreshment for dancers. I have grown up living all over the world and have found nothing in a can better than this. And the ample size of the can is just great!

Amy & Brian All Natural Coconut Juice
I was searching the web looking for a picture of this stuff so i could link to it to hype it to some interweb buddies and was very pleased when I found the high quality picture at this site, but horrifies by the reviews! What are you guys doing? Promoting Coke and Pepsi? This stuff is DELICIOUS! And it needn't be limited to some obscure ethnic or other market. I discovered this stuff at a "Whole Foods" type market. I had also been drinking some of the other rands available at ethnic markets, but the Amy & Brian stuff seems to taste the best. I personally LOVE the big can. (The other brands came in juice boxes, like kids' drinks...)
Anyway, just want you guys to know that there's a white bread middle American who really digs this stuff. It shouldn't be written off. Drink up!!
This stuff is fabulous! It is naturally sweet and the price is right - it is a great value, you get a lot of product for the price. The packaging is fine - As an informed consumer I would rather not pay for fancy packaging - I would prefer to get more of a great product for my money!
I have tried several of the no sugar coconut juices and this is by far the best. Although I enjoy drinking it (the no pulp one), I use it in cooking to replace the much higher fat coconut milk/cream.
This is a very refreshing drink. My favorite way is to drink it icy cold or as a mix with something else. I prefer the one with pulp as a drink on its own. I like this one a lot because I can use it in my smoothies instead of sweetened juices. The size is perfect for me
