Spring Macedonia with Loquat and Aloe Vera Juice

Green Frog Aloe
30 March, 2021

Fruit salad is one of the healthiest and most popular breakfasts, desserts and snacks that exist and can be enjoyed at any time of the year, but is consumed especially in spring or summer for its refreshing and delicious power. The recipe consists of mixing a wide variety of fruits cut into small pieces and seasoned with their own juice, sugar, a sweetener or even a liqueur, and we at Green Frog propose a new recipe by adding Aloe Vera to the mixture, but first we wanted to reveal some interesting facts about this healthy mix.

Seguro que en más de una ocasión has preparado o degustado esta deliciosa receta con diferentes variedades de fruta. En España este plato es popularmente conocido como «macedonia», pero en otros países se conoce como ensalada o cóctel de frutas. Este particular nombre tiene su origen en el Imperio que logró construir Alejandro Magno (Alejandro III Rey de Macedonia desde el año 336 a.C. hasta el 323). Su mandato fue relativamente breve, pero intenso. Durante esta etapa creó un amplio imperio mediante sus continuas conquistas y victorias, aglutinando una gran mezcla de diferentes pueblos y naciones e integrando razas, culturas, idiomas, costumbres, tradiciones… el imperio de Macedonia, de ahí que esta mezcla que se produce con las frutas, sus texturas y sabores se denomine de esta manera. Es una receta que nos permite desatar nuestra creatividad para elaborar un plato colorido, fresco y apetecible, y suele tener éxito con pequeños y mayores, la nutricionista, Gema Martíz, nos propone completar y aderezar la mezcla con nuestro jugo de Aloe Vera Bio sin pulpa ¿te animas a probarla?

Ingredients 

  • Loquat.

  • Kiwi.

  • Papaya.

  • Strawberry.

  • 2 cloves of garlic.

  • 50 ml of fresh organic Aloe Vera juice without pulp.

  • A few drops of lemon juice.

Preparation of the fruit salad

Cut everything into small cubes or pieces, add the Aloe Vera juice and the lemon drops. Place the mixture in a non-metal container, covered and in the fridge until serving time. This is not a dish that should be prepared well in advance to avoid oxidation of the fruit.

Loquat and spring fruit salad

We will stop for a moment at the least known fruit of all those we have included: the loquat, an ephemeral fruit that can only be found in April, May and June. It is a rebellious fruit that cannot be kept in cold storage for a long time.

Esta fruta es originaria de China y conocida en muchos países como «ciruela japonesa». Es un gran depurador para el hígado, órgano al que debemos prestara mucha atención en primavera. La astenia primaveral que sufren tantas personas, a menudo tiene que ver con un hígado sobrecargado.

It is a magnificent source of carotenoid antioxidants (which protect the eyesight and strengthen the immune system) and flavonoids (a good prevention against neurodegenerative diseases). It has a low sugar content, making it suitable for diabetics. It has a slight diuretic effect and a lot of fibre, making it an ideal companion for eliminating toxins and bringing us closer to a healthy weight.

This week, ENCOURAGE, ENJOY, ENJOY and a lot of #ALOEPOWER
