El Guapo Sweet Potato Syrup
TLDR: A small-batch sweetener you can feel good about using nonstop.
Anything but simple, this syrup has rich, roasty flavors that complement everything from hot or iced coffee and black tea to cocktails with or without booze. The small-batch stunner features non-GMO Louisiana sweet potatoes, baking spices, and zero artificial sweeteners or stabilizers. A Good Food Award winner, it was originally created as a way to give imperfect but delicious sweet potatoes destined for the landfill a second chance. Sustainability never tasted so sweet.
