How to Split a Fresh Coconut

  • Set the coconut on the folded dishtowel to keep it from rolling, with the three eyes facing up.
  • Gently tap the screwdriver into one of the eyes and twist to create a hole. Pour the coconut water into a jar.
  • Turn the coconut on its side and lightly hammer around the circumference until a crack forms. Continue tapping until the coconut splits into two halves.
