Prepare the ingredients
Wash the aloe vera thoroughly, then trim 2 edges and the top skin of the aloe vera.
Next, place the aloe vera on a cutting board, and use a knife to cut the aloe vera meat into small square pieces to form a diced shape as shown.
Use a spoon to gently scrape the surface of the aloe vera to separate the meat from the remaining skin.
Wash the aloe vera meat just removed with diluted salt water, then rinse several times with clean water.
Then, briefly blanch the washed aloe vera with a little hot water to remove the slime, then scoop it out into a basket to drain.
Wash the calamondin, cut it in half horizontally, and squeeze to extract the juice.
