Agave Nectar as an alternative to tequila:
Don’t have enough time to make the simple syrup? Then use
Agave Nectar! You can use agave nectar, which is a syrup made from the blue agave plant. It has a sweet, deep caramel flavor profile, which is reminiscent of tequila and is distilled from the same plant. This is an excellent tequila replacement for the non-alcoholic margarita and any virgin drink that calls for tequila.
