Indians and their love for good food truly know no borders – and when it comes to something as refreshing as coconut water, it is almost impossible to say no. Coconut water, a natural source of essential minerals like potassium, magnesium, calcium, and sodium, is the perfect drink to beat the heat. Now imagine finding this tropical delight not on a sun-drenched beach in India, but on the bustling streets of London! That is exactly what British Indian influencer couple, Akshay and Deepali, recently stumbled upon. In a video now going viral on social media, the duo captured a charming slice of desi nostalgia in the heart of the UK capital.
