Very cold fresh buko juice is one of life’s simplest and finest pleasures if you live back here on one of the 7,107 islands in the Philippine archipelago. Soon after the Christmas holidays, we packed up several burros worth of luggage (predominantly food) and headed out to the Batangas shoreline for close to a week of fun in the sun. We had several waves or sets of houseguests over that period and as usual, it was non-stop eating, albeit in a far more relaxed manner. If we have timed it right, and had sufficient space in the car, we almost always buy fresh buko on the way to the beach and as soon as we get there, throw the whole nuts into the pool to cool them down. Yes, floating coconuts in the pool always seems to draw visitor’s attention, but it is smart, you have to admit…
