Trader Joe's is giving consumers even more ways to enjoy the delicious, naturally sweet taste of dates with the debut of its new Organic Date Syrup.
Dates are an ancient food that has been cultivated and enjoyed by humans for more than 7,000 years. Thanks to their natural sweetness, dates have been used to add a sweet profile to many dishes since the days of ancient Mesopotamia. Now, this ancient ingredient is getting a modern update with the debut of Trader Joe'sOrganic Date Syrup.
Trader Joe's new Organic Date Syrup is made from organic, Tunisian Deglet Noor dates, which create a thick syrup with a warm and caramelly taste. The syrup acts as a natural sweetener that can easily be used in place of agave or maple syrup. As Trader Joe's says, "Everything from pancakes and French toast, cakes and pastries, cocktails and coffee drinks, vinaigrettes and marinades, all take on a rich sweetness with even just a light drizzling of our Organic Date Syrup."
