Organic Agave Nectar by Honeytree
This product is available at Walmart and I suspect at a Whole Foods/Trader Joe's type store as well. The cost at Walmart is $5.36 for a 24.7oz bottle. You'll find it in the aisle with syrups, jams, jelly and peanut butter.
This stuff is awesome. The taste is sweet and different. Not overly, sickly sweet like a syrup but more like a version of honey. It goes well on toast, pancakes or waffles, cereal, ice cream, smoothies, coffee and tea...and probably more stuff I have not tried it on or in yet. The consistency of this product at room temperature is very thin. I can tell you that New York-style deli rye bread toasted and buttered then spread with this stuff is beyond delicious.
Here is something to try:
-Kashii Vanilla Island cereal
-Fresh sliced peaches
-Silk vanilla almond milk (sweetened or unsweetened)
-2 tablespoons of Honeytree Agave Nectar
This organic nectar can also be used in cooking as a substitute for corn syrup.
The low glycemic value keeps any "sugar spike" from occuring and there is only 60 calories in a tablespoon. It is made from organically grown agave and has no additives in it. It is probably one of the best sweeteners to use for your kids.
Next time instead of Aunt Jemima syrup try some Agave Nectar. You will be hooked!
