  Agave Nectar is an exciting new sweetener naturally extracted from the pineapple-shaped core of the Americana Agave (a cactus-like plant native to Mexico, best known for its use in making tequila). It has 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 Nectar dissolves easily and the taste is natural, making it the perfect sweetener to naturally enhance any food or beverage!  This is a truly raw Agave, warmed only by the sun.  Some agaves are cooked at 149-180 degrees Fahrenheit.  Others use immature plants, whereas this Agave is made from plants 8-10 years old.
