Drink a Dash of Aloe: The Sun Relieve Cocktail

After a sun drenched day at the park, it’s hard to find the perfect cocktail to cool you down. It can’t be heavy or strong, especially if you got a little too much sun. Your arms are pink, you’re contentedly drowsy, and Gramercy’s Barbounia has the perfect libation for you. Their Sun Relieve is a light and fruity mix that sets itself apart from the typical summer cocktail through the use of a key ingredient: aloe.

Instead of rubbing some on those itchy arms, why not sip some and heal from within? This is actually the first time we’ve seen the plant’s juice being used by a New York bartender. A little research informed us that Aloe has been ingested for centuries, mainly as an herbal remedy to soothe heartburn and help with digestion. Some studies have also shown that it may inhibit tumor growth and lessen the effects of Diabetes. If you’re ordering some this posh New York Restaurant, you’re likely not doing so for the medical benefits. Even so, they provide a great excuse to order another round.

Barbounia uses the plant in two ways. First, they add a bit of the juice directly to the cocktail. Then, they top the drink with an ingenious aloe foam. The recipe is described below. The foam can be very tricky to create in your own kitchen, so we suggest heading over to the restaurant to try. Besides, after a day lounging in the park, do you really want to fiddle with a whipped cream can? We didn’t think so.

The end result is a mixture of sweet and tart, with a dab of gelatin. Perfect as an after-outdoors, pre-dinner drink. Please note: if you are looking for an aloe-related way to cool down and a Sun Relieve cocktail is not in reach, licking an aloe plant doesn’t quite do the trick.

Barbounia is located at 250 Park Avenue South.

I love the Made from Earth "Pure Aloe Treatment".

It's amazing. Here's a little story:

Last summer was the first summer I noticed the beginning of sun damage. I worshipped the sun from the ages of 13-25. Being from a cold climate in the winter, I often enjoyed months of tanning booths. Even though I tan very easily and darken fast, I also freckle. I am part Italian (the dark skin part) and Irish (the freckle part).

During my second pregnancy, I developed something called a pregnancy mask. All around my cheekbones were dark patches and my freckles darkened everywhere as well. Since I am still nursing, the dark spots have returned this summer. I thought about getting a chemical peel from the doctor, but decided to try different face products first. I have always been a huge fan of finding new skin products.

Over the years, I have bought and tried so many anti-aging items. I clearly did not want to show my age or let sun damage get the best of me. I am 36 years old and have no wrinkles at all; however I do have the discoloration in my skin, thanks to my crazy hormones.

I came upon the Made from Earth PURE ALOE TREATMENT by typing in 'harmful chemicals in skincare' in the Google search. I read the reviews and thought I would try this out. I am so glad I did.

I use the Pure Aloe Treatment(works wonders, still have no signs of crow's feet)and I noticed instant moisture to my face. Since I'm a stay at home mom, I apply this stuff all day long. I had instant results, as my face looked healthy and not dull. My discoloration started to fade and coloring all over has improved greatly. Also, since I don't have any wrinkles on my face, I could not know if this was great for wrinkles. However, I do get morning creases on my chest (you know.. when you sleep on your side and you wake up in the morning with a big crease between your chest). I apply this on my upper chest at night and the creases do not show up in the morning.

My entire skin looks like it has taken a big glass of milk. Looks dewy and fresh. I love this stuff and will try out the rest of the Made from Earth product line. On top of that, the company that sells this line is very nice and has top customer service.

The ARPANET was one of the "eve" networks of today's Internet. In an independent development, Donald Davies at the UK National Physical Laboratory also discovered the concept of packet switching in the early 1960s, first giving a talk on the subject in 1965, after which the teams in the new field from two sides of the Atlantic ocean first became acquainted. It was actually Davies' coinage of the wording "packet" and "packet switching" that was adopted as the standard terminology. Davies also built a packet switched network in the UK called the Mark I in 1970

I heard something about some university studies have also shown that it may inhibit tumor growth and lessen the effects of Diabetes. I don't know about it, maybe I need more searching and investigation in this matters, but this blog can help me in this job.
