Agave is a type of succulent plant that includes over 200 species. Agave syrup or agave nectar is a sweetener produced in Mexico, from several species of agave plants, including Agave tequilana (also called Blue Agave or Tequila Agave) and more. Agave nectar is produced by filtering and processing the expressed juice from the core of the agave plant. Within the health food industry, Agave has grown in popularity in recent years because of its low glycemic index. * (A low glycemic index means that the food or beverage does not cause sudden spikes in blood sugar levels.)
