Coconuts or Cocos nucifera, originated in the coastal regions of tropical Asia. Coconuts fall under the category of drupes as they are combination of a fruit, a nut, and a seed. The outer layer of the coconut is known as the husk and are available in many different colors such as yellow, orange, or green.
 
The inner layer of the coconut has a thin or thick white pulp known as coconut meat. The thickness of the meat depends on the maturity of the coconut. Inside you will also find the refreshing coconut water.
 
The amount of water also depends on the maturity of the coconut. If the coconut is young, there will be more water which is known as (WATER COCONUT) or jelly coco. If the nut is more mature it will contain less water and more meat (MATURE MILK COCONUT).
