That slippery texture is normal.
It is just being a cactus.
How To Make The Drink
Add the chopped nopal to a blender.
Pour in the water.
Add the lemon or lime juice.
Add the apple or pineapple if using.
Add honey if you want a softer flavor.
Add mint leaves if you like a fresher taste.
Blend everything until smooth.
If you prefer a lighter juice, strain it through a fine strainer.
If you do not mind the natural texture, you can drink it without straining.
Pour into a glass.
Add ice if desired.
Drink it fresh.
That’s it.
Simple.
Natural.
Homemade.
And much cheaper than those mystery wellness bottles pretending to change your life in three sips.
What Does It Taste Like?
Nopal drink has a fresh, light, slightly green taste.
