Ginger-Aloe Smoothie or Slushie… Warming, Refreshing, and Energizing!
Posted by: Angela Leeds In: *LGS Daily Recipe|Drinks
One glass of this and I felt warm and ready for… well, for somethin’! A night of dancing, I’d say, if it weren’t already 11pm on a Thursday night. 
This is a delicious, non-fat, low-cal, energizing drink you can make a few different ways. Made with fresh lime juice and raw cane sugar as I have shown here, it has a kind of mellow “gingerbreadiness” that is just wonderfully wintery and comforting. Make it instead with fresh lemon juice and raw honey, however, and you’ll have a more completely different flavor. Both perky and mellow, but less “dark” in taste.
I also added quite a bit of ice to mine, to give a slushed effect. But you can add just enough to get a chill and enjoy it as a smoothie.
However you do it, this is so light and refreshing… a very nice light beverage to serve to guests. A nice way to introduce your friends (or your self!) to the pleasure of fresh aloe vera gel! Which is definitely one of nature’s most effective natural energy foods. Great for athletes…both for energy as well as to aid in recovery.
Take this one to the gym or dance studio, for sure!
