Okay, simple syrup has been the go-to for hundreds of years.

Agave sweetener has been seen as a great substitute for mezcal or tequila drinks.

I am going to go out on a limb and recommend that agave sweetener be used instead of simple syrup in a great many tiki drinks.

What it does to citric juice is incredible. It smoothes, brightens, and adds depth to my tiki drinks like no other sweetener.

Despite its name, it is fairly tasteless by itself. It is so much better than honey and way superior to simple syrup.

I you tried it?
