Notes

Note-
  1. If you don’t have aloe vera then can make this with only lemon juice, it will be equally good for digestion.
  2. Be careful while choosing aloe vera as all  aloe vera varieties are not edible.There are many types of aloe vera available,many varieties are bitter in taste so not advisable to consume. sweet variety of aloe vera is dark and bright in colour and have less thorns and have shiny transparent jel inside, so use only the sweet variety of aloevera to make this ajwain .Do Taste a piece of aloe vera before making pulp .
  3. If you don't like adding black salt then can use table salt or sea salt.
