Aloe Vera Tea

Aloe Vera Juice Benefits

Aloe vera tea is becoming more popular - it may not be made how you think though - it is not gel or juice that is warmed or heated up.

It also insn't a cold beverage - like an aloe drink or aloe juice.

It is a steeped hot tea, just like a black tea or a green tea but it is traditionally made by steeping the little yellow flowers of the coveted aloe vera plant.

Benefits of Aloe Vera Tea

Aloe vera is a herbal tea in the true sense of the word. There are no true tea leaves in a traditional aloe vera herbal tea. It is simply made from steeping 1 teaspoon of dried aloe vera blossom and 8 ounces of water, fresh boiled, for 3-5 minutes. The aloe vera flowers that make this wonderful, beneficial herbal tea are harvested and dried from the many aloe vera farms through out the warmer parts of the world. There are some unique benefits to the dried flowers of the aloe vera plant, those who drink the tea, say they have increased energy and a sense of well being. The flowers grow on a 'spike' from the center of the aloe vera plant. This tall spike or shoot then produces many many dense tubular shaped flowers. When a field of aloe vera plants is in bloom, it is a sight to see. If you get the opportunity to visit a plantation - try to arrange to visit when the aloe plants are in bloom.

The aloe flowers range in color from pale yellow to pink, and they are tubular shaped. They have a sweet nectar in them - and are a favorite of bees and hummingbirds. It is also an immune system stimulant, increasing the bodies natural ability to fight disease and illness.

If you want to sweeten your aloe vera herbal tea, honey is the sweetner of choice and it compliments this herbal tea very well. We recommend that you don't add milk, however some people still do for flavor - but the tea is wonderful on its own with just a touch of honey.
