Preparation
Wash the aloe vera leaf with cold water and remove the dry or blackened parts if any.
Remove the sides of the leaf (that part with thorns), then cut the leaf into ~ 2 cm slices and leave in a container with water for 30 minutes, the necessary step to remove that yellowish / latex sap which, in some people more sensitive, may have an allergic effect or, if consumed internally, a laxative effect.
⚠ For commercially purchased leaves, this yellowish sap is usually in very small amounts, and if you are not allergic to it, you can skip this step.
We extract the pulp from the slices of chopped aloe. I was basically removing the peel with a knife. If the leaf is not big enough, it can be cut in half with a knife and with the help of a spoon, we grate the aloe vera gel.
We will mix the extracted aloe vera pulp with a mixer / blender for about 1 minute and thus obtain an liquid / aloe vera gel with an aerated foam on the surface.
Add the wine and honey and mix again for a few seconds just enough to mix.
Pour the mixture into a glass container, close with a lid and leave to macerate for at least 7 days in a ventilated and cool place, without light (ideally cellar).
After maceration you can choose to filter the drink or consume it as such.
Once the bottle is opened, it is recommended to store it in the refrigerator for a maximum of 30 days.
Observations
✔ Wine alcohol increases the assimilation of Aloe gel, honey is a good carrier, the 3 ingredients thus becoming an exceptional immune stimulator, thanks to the compound glucomannan from Aloe Vera, which stimulates macrophages (special leukocytes that swallow bacteria and residues)
✔ Basically, combined, these three ingredients amplify their properties.
✔ The peel of the Aloe Vera leaf also contains a yellow sap called latex, which in high doses, for some people, can be toxic (laxative effect) or allergic.
✔ It is recommended to use a natural wine, without sulfites (red country wine), and bee honey, it is preferable to be acacia.
✔ We recommend the use of non-metallic utensils!
Storage and validity::
→ It is recommended to store in a cool, ventilated place without light (ideally in the cellar or refrigerator).
