The reveal after the blind taste test – Vita Coco inside a real coconut – surprised parkgoers.
Rizal Park, just got a taste of the most bizarre buko juice experience ever. As soon as the brand’s Vita Coco-riton hit the streets, unsuspecting passersby were invited to taste Vita Coco’s refreshingly real coconut water. But here’s the twist: they had to “pay” for it with their hair. After taking a sip, they were told to sit on a stool to shave their heads, following the infamous gupit buko haircut.
Casual parkgoers got curious about Vita Coco’s taste but quickly bailed after seeing the twist. This triggered a dramatic (but totally staged) showdown with a hired accomplice who pretended to be another passerby. Just as the tension reached peak absurdity, the buko juice vendor revealed it was all a prank and they were on camera.
But the surprises didn’t stop there. The prank was followed by a blind taste test, in which parkgoers were given two coconuts – one with fresh coconut water and one with a Vita Coco bottle inside. The participants struggled to determine which was more refreshing because Vita Coco tasted as real as coconut water. Seeing the subjects hesitate, unsure which to choose, the vendor opens the whole coconut—inside, a bottle of Vita Coco.
