Bangkok's Vegan Food Diary #2: Coconut Juice (น้ำมะพร้าว)
living in concrete jungle, like in Bangkok for instance, can be rather daunting. Most of our everyday foods and drinks are either microwaveable or come straight from a can. This is why I'm so grateful for fresh markets. Every time I go in, I pick up new local vegetables, herbs, or fruits that I've never tried before. But the best part is the fresh coconut juice that has natural flavours and is 100% organic, crack open on demand. To make it even better, after purchase, these coconuts are given out with a spoon where we can enjoy the goodness inside as we quench our thirst. I admit that I sometimes despise the heat I have to endure here in Thailand, but it is undeniable that the very heat is the reason we have access to fresh produce the way we do now. I guess we can always find good things in everything, we just have to look for them. :)
