Hmmm... fwiw... Agave syrup is a sweetener. Use it in Margaritas and other drinks. Triple Sec is an orange liqueur. It is not a sweetener. It is not to be substituted in a drink with a sweetener. And yes, it is to be heard. The flavor of a good margarita has a hint of orange. It is why sometimes orange slices are placed in the margarita. Remove it and you have a Tequila Daisy or something like it, especially if you use lemons instead of lime for your margaritas.
