Tips
- Chop the dates and soak them in the aloe juice for 10 minutes before blending so they break down fully instead of leaving gritty flecks.
- Blend the spinach with the aloe juice and dates first, on low speed, then add the banana and strawberries; that way the leaves purée fully before the fruit thickens everything.
- Hull the strawberries before blending; the dates already bring plenty of sweetness, so a just-ripe banana is enough.

Blended. The dates and spinach need a full blend cycle to break down completely, which a shake or quick pulse would not achieve, leaving a gritty or fibrous texture.

A hurricane glass, garnished with a strawberry.
How do you make an aloe vera detox drink at home?
