I thought, coconut milk is made by soaking the white bits of coconut fruit (“flesh”) in water; while the coconuts naturally contain a clear liquid called “coconut juice” or “coconut water”.
But do some coconuts naturally have a milky liquid inside instead of a clear liquid?
I’ve never seen that. The water usually has a whiteish hue.
Young coconut water can be sweet and slightly bubbly, and the fruit is absolutely fantastic, like butter. You can’t experience that without a coconut tree.
I second that. I haven’t seen coconut with white water and I’ve tried coconut in different countries

Coconut milk is not water with coconut flesh soaked in it. To get coconut milk, you grate coconut flesh, pulverise it (Using a juicer for example) and then squeeze or strain the result, seperating coconut milk from the chaff.
Coconut water is just the water inside a coconut.
