Agave Syrup
Our Certified Organic Agave Syrup is available in our easy to use 8oz bottle. This all natural sweetener otherwise known as agave nectar, tastes great right out of the bottle and can be used to sweeten drinks or in baking as a sugar substitute.

A natural fructose sweetener that is extracted from Mexico's Agave cactus plant. It is known that the indigenous people of Mexico traditionally gathered the sweet juice, known as aguamiel, from various varieties of Agave. They used it as a sweetener and to prepare special celebratory beverages. The agave nectar that we use is farmed in a sustainable manner where the agave plant is harvested but left in the ground to regenerate for next season.

Agave Nectar Farming

Aunt Patty's Certified Organic Agave Syrup is also certified Kosher and is available in retail and industrial quantities. Its neutral flavor has caused it to be widely used in the food and beverage manufacturing industry. In addition many have suggested that agave, because it is high in fructose which does not stimulate digestive insulin secretions, is an acceptable alternative sweetener for people who suffer from diabetes and hypoglycemia.
