Is it ok to drink the water from a coconut?
Answers:
Most people have been saying that coconut milk is the same as coconut water. This is not true.
"Actually, the liquid endosperm inside a young coconut is known as coconut water. It is fat free and low in calories, but is a good source of potassium and other nutrients.
Coconut milk is made by pureeing a mixture of coconut meat and water, then straining it to remove some of the fat."
But basically, yes, it is safe to drink.

Yes, it is definitely safe to do so. Even the flesh of the coconut can be eaten. The younger coconut's water is sweet and not so for the older.
The flesh of the older coconut is grated and squeezed for the milk to cook curries with.
