Agave Who?


So, I'm sure this will be a snoozer for some, but if you like coffee or hot tea and need another something something to sweeten it with, then this is the thing for you...Ohgave! I love it and it tastes so good. I found it at TJMaxx (probably seems like a strange place to buy edible items, but their website lists them as a seller) and it is a great substitute for honey because it has a lower glycemic index of 17, which means it won't spike your insulin levels like sugar or honey. I'm not diabetic, but years of insulin spikes add up and I'm lowering my daily spikes with Ohgave. It is made of agave nectar that comes from the Mexican agave plant and it is similar in consistency to honey, but a little less viscous. Give it a try whenever you would use sugar or honey and you'll be hooked.
