How to choose fresh and delicious ingredients
How to choose fresh aloe vera
- To choose fresh aloe vera, you should select those with small branches and uniform green color.
- Furthermore, you need to pay attention to choose branches of aloe vera that have white spots; if cutting releases slime from the cut, these branches are still fresh.
- You should not buy aloe vera that is green towards the thorny edge, as this indicates that the aloe vera has wilted. You should also avoid large branches that are purple-green as they may look attractive but lack the nutrients found in smaller types.
How to choose delicious, quality honey
- To buy a good quality pure honey jar, you should choose those with a uniform color. If you choose to buy wild honey that has been directly squeezed from the honeycomb by hand, there may be some wax, pollen, or larvae mixed in the jar.
- You should avoid buying jars of honey that are cloudy, with some areas darker and some lighter, as this may indicate that the honey has been mixed.
- You can also try to identify whether the honey you bought is real or fake by dropping a few drops of honey into a glass of water. If the honey does not dissolve and sinks to the bottom, congratulations, you have purchased pure honey. If the honey dissolves in water, then it is fake honey, mixed with sugar or other sweeteners.

Preparing aloe vera
First, take 3 small aloe vera branches and wash them thoroughly with water. Then, use a peeling knife to remove the green outer skin, then cut the aloe vera into small, bite-sized pieces.
Next, rinse the cut aloe vera with a little diluted salt water, then rinse with clean water a few times.
Blanch the aloe vera briefly in hot water to remove its slimy substances. Finally, place the aloe vera in a basket and let it drain.

Soak aloe vera with honey
Prepare 1 glass jar that is dry and clean, and add about 20 ml of honey into the jar. Next, add all the aloe vera in and add another 30ml of honey, drizzling it over the surface of the aloe vera, then use a spoon to stir well.
Finally, seal the lid tightly and place the aloe vera in the cool compartment of the refrigerator for about 1 day before you can use it!
