Aloe vera juice with blueberry is a sweetened drink containing pieces of aloe vera gel in a blueberry-flavoured base, usually with 8–12 g of sugar per 100 ml. Blueberry anthocyanins are present only if real blueberry juice is used; many versions rely on flavouring. The key safety point is that food-grade aloe must be decolourised, with aloin removed.
Key facts at a glance
- Aloe pieces add texture; they are mostly water with little nutrition.
- Blueberry flavour ≠ blueberry juice. Check for a declared juice percentage.
- Aloin must be removed; the EU bans it in food (Regulation 2021/468).
- Health claims for aloe drinks are not authorised in the EU.
- 500 ml PET is the most common format.
