The sun is out, Monkey and Mouse are playing in the garden and the washing is on the line; I am sure that all this means that Spring is here and summer is well on the way! The thing that I love about warmer times is that I can go into the garden and sit and watch the children play.
Of course I often do it with my sunglasses and a refreshing drink. So this week as Monkey and Mouse kicked a football around the garden I was glad that I had been asked to try out a new drink recently launched in the UK.
“Said to be the next coconut water, with suggested health benefits ranging from soothing upset stomachs to helping your skin glow, one of the world’s biggest aloe vera juice brands hope their drinks will be known in the UK as much for their taste as their health benefits…”
There are seven different flavours of the Alo Drink; including Wheatgrass, ‘Watermelon and Peach’ and the lovely honey. All of the drinks are mixed with real Aloe pieces and are packed with vitamins and folic acid.
I put my drinks in the fridge to give them a bit of a chill and then I sat in the garden with one whilst the kids played around me, a few moments later they asked if they could try some. They both liked it and went of to get their glass so they could have some more!
Monkey has since asked daily if he can have ‘one of them special Alo drinks’. He would literally pick it over any other drink!
There are flavours I like more than others, but they are all have a nice taste – my favourite is the pomegranate and cranberry, There are bits in the drink (Like orange juice with bits), these come from the Aloe plant itself and just remind you about the goodness in the drinks! 
The drinks are tasty and healthy – so, what could be better?
Well, the fact that the children would pick them over lemonade is good, there are no artificial flavours, colours or preservatives and that they come in a bottle that is big enough to give you a fab drink and small enough to go in your bag!
As if the taste of the drink, the healthy bonuses and the fact it’s refreshing isn’t enough you also get Free Music with every bottle!
The lovely people at Alo want to spread the news of this fab drink so are offering you a chance to win some to try it yourself, so, If you fancy trying it out follow the gleam widget below.
