Agave nectar is made from the juice of the agave plant. Agave is spiky plant that grows throughout the southwest and in Mexico. Their nectar is like honey and is harvested similar to maple syrup from a maple trees. It is high in fructose and is 1.4 times sweeter than sugar. Agave nectar has a low glycemic index which means it doesn’t stimulate insulin like most sweeteners, or cause a “sugar rush.” It also pours easily and adds moisture to baked goods. It dissolves well in cold or hot beverages making it delicious in herbal iced tea.
