Our Blue Agave Extract is the sticky, sweet nectar or syrup of the Agave plant. It is a fantastic way to experiment with different flavors in your meads and beers. It has a malty aroma with a hint of sweetness to it. One of the great things about Agave Extract is that it won't crystallize like honey will, so it maintains a smooth, liquid-like consistency. Notes of molasses come out when tasting it. The extract is light in color, and in addition to being fermented, many people use Agave extract as a sweetener in foods. And due to it's low glycemic index, it is a great alternative to sugar for diabetics. Agave Extract is also referred to as Agave Syrup or Agave Nectar often times.
