Coconut nectar is a liquid coconut sweetener with a mild butterscotch character — less assertive than yacon, less fruit-forward than date syrup. It pours easily and dissolves straight into cold drinks.
What it tastes like
Mild and rounded, with a soft butterscotch-caramel note. It does not taste strongly of coconut, which surprises most people. Of the syrups we sell it is the most neutral, so it is the easiest one to add to something without changing its character.
How to use it
-
Coffee, tea and cold drinks — dissolves immediately, which granulated sugar does not.
-
Pancakes and waffles — the obvious one, and it holds up.
-
Smoothies and shakes — adds sweetness and body without a competing flavour.
-
Dressings and sauces — useful anywhere you want sweetness to round something off rather than announce itself.
-
Baking — it is a liquid, so it is not a one-for-one swap for granulated sugar. It adds moisture and something else has to come out.

Common questions
Is it certified organic?
No. We are not USDA organic certified and we do not use the word. If you find an older listing that says otherwise, it is out of date.
Does it taste like coconut?
Only faintly. Most people read it as butterscotch or light caramel rather than coconut.
How does it compare to the other syrups?
It is the mildest. Yacon is the most flavourful, date syrup the sweetest and fruitiest, and chicory root syrup the one built around fiber — 11g per tablespoon with 0g added sugars. Coconut nectar is the one that stays out of the way.
Does it dissolve in cold drinks?
Yes, immediately. That is the main practical advantage of a syrup over a granulated sweetener.
No one is perfect. Just have good balance.
