Australian coconut water producer, Raw C, has expanded its range of flavoured coconut water with a chocolate-y new beverage just in time for Easter, with the launch of Raw C Pure Coconut Water Infused with Chocolate.

Raw C’s chocolate coconut water blends single-origin coconut water infused with cocoa and coconut cream to create a smooth drink with just the right amount of chocolate goodness, without being overly sweet.

Raw C owner, Scott Mendelsohn, said consumers who love chocolate drinks will enjoy this one, because it’s delicious and has all the benefits of natural coconut water.

“Customers have been hounding us to bring this new addition to the range, and we are proud to say we have created something truly special,” said Mendelsohn.

“Chocolate coconut water has been in the works for a while at HQ, as we already have great sales of our chocolate coconut milk range, very much appealing to our lactose intolerant and vegan customers.

“We actually created these products for my own family who struggle with dietary restrictions, and my kids love the chocolate range,” he said.

The new chocolate flavour joins Raw C’s range of sparkling and still flavoured coconut water, released in November 2024, including pineapple, watermelon, sparkling lychee, sparkling ginger beer, and sparkling kola.

Raw C Pure Coconut Water Infused with Chocolate is now available at Woolworths supermarkets nationwide or online at rawc.com.au for RRP $3.00 per can or $36.00 in a case of 12.
