With many health benefits from pH balance, skin benefits, and hydration to using it for detox and constipation, aloe water should not be used as a regular drink, but a medicinal elixir.
To extract the gel from the aloe leaf, slice down the center. Scoop with a spoon. You can keep the gel for 1 week in a sealed container in the refrigerator.
Add 1 tablespoon of aloe gel to 1 cup of water and blend well. Feel free to add sweetener or a squeeze of citrus.
