What it is

Organic Amber Agave Nectar is a sweetener made from the agave plant, a succulent native to Mexico. The plant's sap is extracted, filtered, and heated to break down complex carbohydrates into simpler sugars, then concentrated into a syrup. The amber color comes from processing and filtering.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use agave nectar as a sweetener in a variety of foods, including yogurt, ice cream, and baked goods. Its liquid form and mild flavor make it easy to incorporate into recipes. It provides sweetness similar to honey or maple syrup.

Health notes

Agave nectar is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use as a sweetener. Like other sugars, it provides calories and can impact blood sugar levels. The World Health Organization (WHO) and other international bodies have evaluated sugars, noting that high intake of free sugars is linked to adverse health outcomes. Evidence on the specific health effects of agave nectar compared to other sugars is mixed.

Allergen info

Agave nectar is not derived from any of the 9 FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
