What King coconut is
Orange coconut water, sold at roadside stalls.
King coconut is listed as a drink in the Sri Lanka guide, where the index tags it juice. That is the useful shorthand, but it is not the whole story: the same name can cover a breakfast version, a street version and a restaurant version with different garnishes and prices.

King coconut: common questions
What is King coconut?
Orange coconut water, sold at roadside stalls. It is listed in the TasteBridge Sri Lanka guide as a drink.
How much does King coconut cost in Sri Lanka?
Expect the budget band: usually under US$8. Prices move with the city and the venue, so treat this as a planning figure rather than a fixed menu price.
Is King coconut vegetarian?
King coconut is not tagged vegetarian in our data, because the tag is aimed at dishes rather than drinks. A plain black coffee, tea or fruit drink usually contains nothing animal-based, but milk, cream, honey, egg white or a pre-mixed powder can change that, so ask what goes in the cup.
Where can I try King coconut?
Our index lists it across Sri Lanka, so it is not tied to one address. Ask locally which version is served at breakfast, lunch or late evening, because the same name can cover different presentations.
