What to know about Paper Boat Swing Tender Coconut Water Drink

Sweetened water with a small share of coconut

A 1.2 L ready-to-serve coconut water drink made from water, sugar, coconut water concentrate (4.3%), potassium chloride, citric acid, flavours, three preservatives and iodised salt. It is bought as a flavoured, chilled alternative to cola or packaged juice, with the pull of a tropical, tender-coconut taste.

Per 100 ml it has 28.8 kcal, 6.9 g total sugar of which 4.5 g is added, no protein, no fat and no declared fibre. Potassium is 256 mg and sodium 23 mg per 100 ml. The pack's 200 ml serve, six to a bottle, gives about 58 kcal, 9 g added sugar and 512 mg potassium.

The name promises tender coconut water, and the list shows sugar ahead of the coconut water concentrate, which is 4.3% of the drink. A back-of-pack footnote describes it as a reconstituted 55% coconut water drink. CleanPlate scores it EC2.

Why Paper Boat Swing Tender Coconut Water Drink scores EC2

Nutrition is an E because there is no protein or fibre. Ingredients are a C, held down by preservatives, flavouring and a small coconut share. Risk is a 2, driven mainly by 4.5 g added sugar per 100 ml.

01 Nutrition density: why E

There is no protein, no fat and no declared fibre, so nothing earns credit. The only coconut protein is a tiny amount from the 4.3% concentrate, too little to count.

Potassium is 256 mg per 100 ml, but it is added as potassium chloride as well as coming from the coconut, and the grade does not give it a bonus.

Scored on protein, fibre and twelve vitamins and minerals, against the Codex and FSSAI "source" and "high" levels, per 100 g and per 100 kcal. Protein also has to supply at least 12.5% of the calories to count, and 25% for full credit.

02 Ingredient integrity: why C

Water and sugar come first, then coconut water concentrate at 4.3%. A real ingredient at this small share costs a small label point, because the name leads with coconut water.

Flavouring that is partly nature-identical costs ingredient points, and so does potassium metabisulphite (224). Potassium sorbate (202) and citric acid cost nothing. Preservative 242 is listed with them.

Scored on how processed the ingredients are, which additives are used and why, and whether the label keeps its promises.

Low risk

Added sugar
4.5 g
Sodium
23 mg

03 Load risk: why 2

Sugar is almost all of the risk: 4.5 g added sugar per 100 ml, and 9 g in a 200 ml glass. Sodium at 23 mg per 100 ml adds very little.

Energy is low at 28.8 kcal per 100 ml, and there is no saturated or trans fat, which is why the risk number stays at 2.

Scored on free sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat, each weighed by how strong the evidence of harm is.

Does Paper Boat Swing Tender Coconut Water Drink live up to its claims?

The coconut is real but small: concentrate is 4.3% of the drink, behind sugar in the list. The ready-to-serve claim holds, and the 55% coconut water footnote needs context.

  • Product name

    “Tender Coconut Water Drink”

    Partly true

    Coconut water concentrate is real but only 4.3% of the drink, and sugar is listed ahead of it. Flavouring is added as well.

  • On the pack

    “Reconstituted 55% coconut water drink”

    Be careful

    The footnote refers to the concentrate being reconstituted, while the list shows it at 4.3% of the drink, after water and sugar.

  • On the pack

    “Ready to serve fruit beverage”

    Holds

    It is a ready-to-drink beverage with no preparation needed, and it carries 4.5 g added sugar per 100 ml.

  • Retail listing

    “Serve size 200 g”

    Be careful

    The retailer page shows a 200 g serve, the pack shows 200 ml with six servings per bottle. The figures are per 100 ml.

What's in Paper Boat Swing Tender Coconut Water Drink?

Water and sugar lead, then a small amount of coconut water concentrate. The added sugar and the preservative blend are what to watch.

The ingredient list, read for you

Water leads, then sugar, so the drink is sweetened water first. Coconut water concentrate follows at 4.3%, with potassium chloride, citric acid for sharpness and flavouring for the coconut taste. The last item is a group of preservatives (242, 202 and 224) with iodised salt.

Ingredients to watch

  • Added sugarConcern

    4.5 g per 100 ml, so 9 g in a 200 ml glass. It is the main driver of the risk number.

  • Preservatives 242, 202, 224Worth watching

    Three preservatives are listed. Potassium metabisulphite (224) costs ingredient points, and potassium sorbate (202) costs none.

  • FlavouringWorth watching

    Natural and nature-identical flavouring costs ingredient points, and it supplies part of the coconut taste.

  • Small coconut shareWorth watching

    Coconut water concentrate is 4.3% and listed after sugar, which costs a small label point.

  • PotassiumFine

    256 mg per 100 ml, about 512 mg in a 200 ml glass, with 23 mg sodium per 100 ml.

What it doesn’t have

  • No fibre or protein is declared on the panel.
  • The list gives no sugar amount separate from coconut water, only the 4.5 g added sugar line.

Who should eat Paper Boat Swing Tender Coconut Water Drink?

A few times a week for most adults, and occasionally for children and for anyone watching blood sugar, since a 200 ml glass has 9 g added sugar.

  • Most adultsA few times a week

  • ChildrenOccasionally

  • Diabetes or prediabetesOccasionally

    13.8 g total sugar per 200 ml glass, with no fibre or protein.

  • Weight managementA few times a week
