Thambili, or King Coconut, is a highly nutritious variety of coconut native specifically to Sri Lanka. It is the absolute safest, most hygienic drink you can buy because the water is completely sealed naturally inside the thick shell.

The vendor will slice the top off right in front of you. It is packed with natural electrolytes and is vastly superior for rehydration in the tropical heat compared to any commercial sports drink.
