Amber Agave Nectar Syrup 16oz (100 % Pure Raw Cetified Organic)
Organic Agave Syrup is an exciting new sweetener naturally extracted from the pineapple-shaped core of the Americana Agave (a cactus-like plant native to Mexico, best know for its use in making tequila). A 70% fruit sugar content allows Agave nectar to absorb slowly into the body, decreasing the highs and lows associated with sugar intake. Also, because fruit sugars are 25% sweeter than typical refined white sugar, you use less and save on calories. Organic Agave Syrup dissolves easily and the taste is natural, making it the perfect sweetener to naturally enhance any food or beverage! Organic Agave Syrup is Raw, 100% pure, certified organic, and kosher. Agave syrup (or nectar) has a low glycemic level and is a delicious, safe, and healthy alternative to table sugar. Unlike the crystalline form of fructose, which is refined primarily from corn, agave syrup is fructose in its natural form. This nectar does not contain processing chemicals. Even better, because fructose is sweeter than table sugar, less is needed in your recipes. It can be most useful for people who are diabetic, have insulin resistance (Syndrome X), or are simply watching their carbohydrate intake. Agave syrup dissolves easily in other liquids, making it easy to use. Agave syrup is approximately 1.5 times sweeter than sugar or honey. In recipes, replace sugar or honey using 25% less agave syrup. There are thousands of recipes and foods that would be well complimented by agave syrup including beverages, sauces, salad dressings, smoothies, deserts, etc.
