Ways to use it? Our blue agave nectar dissolves quickly, so it is a great sweetener for cold drinks, such as iced tea, iced coffee or cocktails. Use as a sweetener in place of sugar or honey in hot drinks, baking or other cooking. You can use our blue agave nectars straight out of the bottle as a topping for pancakes, French toast, oatmeal, waffles, ice cream, or in sauces and meat glazes. 

How much to use? Blue Agave nectar is more calorie dense than sugar but about 40% sweeter, so start by using about half as much agave as you would sugar. For one cup of white sugar, use 1/3 to 2/3 of a cup of agave and reduce other liquids by 1/4 to 1/3 cup. Replace honey or maple syrup with equal amounts of our blue agave nectar.
