Your New Year’s Eve Survival Kit from Vita Coco

Whether you’re hitting the South Beach circuit or hosting your nearest and dearest at home, you’ll want to ring in the New Year armed with these tips from Vita Coco. Vita Coco is the all-natural, super-hydrating, nutrient-packed coconut water that’s equally tasty on its own or blended into your favorite cocktail.

  • For those entertaining at home, channel your inner mixologist and treat guests to a festive Tropical Coco-Martini.

Tropical Coco-Martini

1 Part Vita Coco Pure

1 Part Vodka

1 Squeeze of Lime Juice

Lime slice, for garnish

Place all ingredients into a glass and serve. Foradded zest, add a splash of fresh blood orange juice or nectar to taste (such as passion fruit or guava)

  • If you prefer a night on the town, do yourself a favor and enjoy a coconut water-based cocktail at any of a number of top New Year’s Eve destinations including Soho Beach House, the Standard Hotel and the Living Room at the W Hotel, all of which feature cocktails made with Vita Coco.
  • When the party’s over and you happen to awake feeling less than your best, grab a Vita Coco and whip up the Ultimate Hangover Smoothie using this quick and easy recipe.
