We're experimenting! We harvested this aloe from our balcony and tried our hand at making aloe gel! Aloe gel is very helpful in wound healing and digestion. We tried adding some to our lemonade and it was great for cooling down in the summer!

How to make aloe gel:
Cut the spiny sides off the leaves and remove the top green layer.Right under this the clear fleshy gel should be extracted and any yellow-green sap washed off. Your aloe gel is ready for use!
