"I read that this & honey affect your PH in opposite ways, so to stay balanced, I sweeten a cup of tea with the honey, then another cup of tea with the agave every day, this kind tastes good on bread instead of butter also!"

"excellent price for the quality and amount. agave is an important sweetener for many because it has a low glycemic index (produces only small fluctuations in our blood glucose and insulin levels)."

"This is a wonderful product when you want to sweeten without the use of chemical sweetners...ugh!, but don't want all that refined sugar either. I put it in a small plastic bottle to carry in my purse to take with me to restaurants besides using it at home...it has absolutely no after taste like the chemical stuff and you also need less to do the same job."

"I first put Madhava Agave in my English Breakfast tea. I found I would need to use more than if I was just putting in sugar and it would be expensive. Cannot say I liked the taste that much either.

Then I put it on my morning cereal. It really shines there and will continue to use it.

I have seen mixed reviews on Agave and Madhava looks like one of the best brands by far.

Stevia leaves an aftertaste and it is hard to get the right amount in the first place so I don't use it.

Agave is pretty easy to get the right amount on my cereal."

"This is our first bottle of Agave Nectar so I wasn't sure what to expect. It is very light tasting, but yet sweetens deliciously.

I would highly recommend this product to anyone who doesn't want an overwhelming sweetener, but yet also needs something to sweeten with.

Has a very mild and nice flavor, and also dissolves easily in cold beverages like smoothies.

Great all around sweetener."
