How many of you know that the good
ol' nariyal pani is loaded with vitamins, minerals, electrolytes and
antioxidants.
Then again, it's not only your
grandmom's favourite remedy against dehydration, but also of Hollywood and
Bollywood celebrities like Madonna, Sienna Miller, Claudia Schiffer, Deepika
Padukone, Nargis Fakhri and Evelyn Sharma, who swear by coconut water as an
energy drink. So now, mixologists in the city have taken it on themselves to
give the humble drink a tangy makeover. They have been busy this season trying
to stir up some unique mocktails with the natural drink as the key ingredient.
