Today I bring you another of my recipe of an amazing drink you will all love โค๏ธ. A combination of Aloe Vera and a sparkling Soda of lemon, lime ๐ flavors.
The need to make this refreshing but sweet bitter drink arose today because I took a friend of mine home for a bit of refreshments from the field work we are in. And since we are trying to cut down on sugary drinks consumption, I decided to make a sweet bitter drink from some chilled soda I have in the refrigerator.
One thing with Aloe Vera juice is that its super nourishing but many a shying away from it. But this being a combination of Aloe Vera and Soda made this drink a unique one to try since the sugar in the Soda will definitely be tune down with the bitters from the Aloes while its still refreshing.
I made this refreshing yummy drink by crushing some of the Aloe Vera gel in this new recipe. And adding and combining Soda to it, I reduced the bitterness without reducing the many known benefits of the Aloe Vera plant ๐ฑ ๐.
Here below I take you all through the process of this amazing blend.

Acemannan is one of the wonderful elements found in Aloe Vera gel. Its a complex carbohydrate that allows nutrients to reach the cells, it nourishes them and relieves them of toxins. This is just one benefit of Aloe Vera among so many others.
My friend could not believe what an amazing healthy drink I prepared to treat her. She loved it and loved that she has learned a way to enjoy other sweet drinks by adding Aloe plant ๐ฑ once in a while to bring and tune down sugars. How amazing friends ๐
