Agave is a popular new sweetener that is sourced from a desert plant similar to cactus, and has certain benefits when compared to sugar. Agave has trace elements, minerals, and other vitamins not found in processed sugar, and also has a low-glycemic index, meaning there is no 'sugar-rush' effect.
The nectar from the Agave plant is ideal for sweetening. This product is about 1.5 times as sweet as honey, and has a variety of health benefits. Agave has a low glycemic-index making it an excellent alternative to sugar. Made with real Jalisco Agave.
