Coconut Milk vs. Coconut Water. Whether you're looking for a replacement for your coffee creamer or for your usual sports drink, coconut may be your answer. While canned or raw coconut milk is more useful as an ingredient in cooking, coconut water or refrigerated coconut milk can serve as an alternative to your usual drinking beverage. Knowing the differences may help you determine which, if any, works best in your diet.
Coconut milk calories depend on the variety and brand that you buy (or make at home). Natural coconut milk has a higher fat content because it hasn't been blended with other ingredients. One cup of unsweetened coconut milk (coconut cream) provides 560 calories, almost 58 grams of fat and over 51 grams of saturated fat. But you may not use an entire cup of this kind of coconut milk.
