1. What do you need to prepare?

• 2 fresh natural aloe vera leaves

• 200g white sugar (adjust to your taste and family preferences)

• 1.5 liters of water

• 1 teaspoon salt

• Fresh lemon (to remove the aloe vera sap)

• Pandan leaves (also known as screwpine leaves)

2. How to clean natural aloe vera properly

Step 1: Rinse the aloe vera leaves, trim off the sharp edges on both sides, then peel away the green skin to get the clear flesh inside.

Step 2: Cut the aloe vera into small cubes about 1cm thick. This helps keep the pieces firm and crunchy during cooking instead of turning mushy.

Step 3: Soak the cubes in water mixed with lemon juice and salt for 10 to 15 minutes. Then rinse several times until the slimy layer is completely removed.

3.1 Boil the aloe vera

Boil the aloe vera cubes in water for about 2 to 3 minutes.

To keep them crisp and prevent softening when mixed with syrup, immediately place the cubes in a bowl of ice water right after boiling.

3.2 Make the sugar syrup

Bring the water to a boil. Tie the pandan leaves into a bundle, then add them to the pot with the sugar. Once the syrup becomes fragrant, remove the leaves.

3.3 Combine aloe vera with syrup

• Lower the heat to a gentle simmer, then add the aloe vera cubes. Continue cooking for 5 to 7 minutes before turning off the heat.

• Let the drink cool completely, then refrigerate.

• It tastes best when served cold, so add a few ice cubes for extra refreshment.
