Yogo Vera aloe drink

a.k.a Yogur de Savila. I really like the strawberry flavor, pictured to the right.  You can find it at your local asian supermarket probably?

It tastes a lot like this sweet milky "soft drink" on the left (also available at asian supermarkets).. but with little bits of aloe vera floating in the drink.  The soft drinks are pretty good too, if you just feel like wetting your lips with flavor.  They're tiny.

If you've never had an aloe vera drink, I recommend you try that too!  It doesn't taste like lotion, I promise.  It's sweet and delicious.  Here's a pic:




Recently I bought a bottle of strawberry Calpico because it was on sale.  Calpico is a similar milky drink, but without the aloe vera bits.  I actually found it a little too sweet and not having as good of a flavor as Yogo Vera.  According to Wikipedia, Calpico is called Calpis outside of the US.  They changed it to Calpico because Calpis sounds like "cow piss".
