Serves: 4

Ingredients

• 15 cm aloe vera leaf (you can leave the skin on, just cut off the wooden bits)
• 1 tomato (with skin but without seeds)
• Handful of mint leaves
• 3-4 tulsi leaves (very healthy plant, good against colds, coughs, and negative thoughts!)
• 2-inch piece of marrow (from the family of pumpkins, but don’t substitute if you can’t find it, just leave it out)
• 1 small apple or 1/4 papaya or 1 pomegranate (just the seeds) or a carrot, finely chopped
• 2 cups of water
• (If you really need it sweeter, add 1 tsp of honey afterward)

Preparation

1. Begin by carefully washing the Aloe vera leaf to remove any dirt or residue. Use a sharp knife to cut off the spiky edges and the wooden parts from the sides.

2. Slit the leaf open lengthwise to expose the inner gel. Using a spoon, scrape out the clear gel and add it to a blender.

3. Add the tomato (without seeds), mint leaves, tulsi leaves, and the optional piece of marrow to the blender.

4. Pour in the 2 cups of water to help with blending and dilution.

5. Blend the mixture until you achieve a smooth and well-incorporated juice.

6. Taste the juice to determine if you’d like it sweeter. If needed, add 1 tsp of honey and blend again.

7. Once your Aloe vera juice is well-mixed and at your preferred sweetness level, pour it into a glass.

8. You can serve it immediately over ice for a refreshing, chilled drink.
