At The Roaring Bean Coffee Company, we believe in sweeteners that bring flavor, quality, and a little something extra to your coffee. Coconut sugar is a naturally derived sweetener made from the sap of coconut palm blossoms. Unlike highly refined white sugar, coconut sugar undergoes minimal processing, which allows it to retain trace amounts of nutrients like iron, zinc, calcium, and potassium.
A naturally rich flavor
Coconut sugar adds a subtle, caramel-like sweetness to your coffee, enhancing the taste without overpowering it. Its unique flavor makes it a perfect choice for lattes, iced coffee, and specialty drinks.
Contains inulin for gut health
Coconut sugar naturally contains inulin, a type of soluble fiber that acts as a prebiotic. This means it helps feed your gut’s healthy bacteria and may contribute to a slower absorption of sugar, supporting balanced energy throughout your day.
Slightly gentler on blood sugar
Thanks to its fiber content, coconut sugar has a lower glycemic index (GI) than regular table sugar (typically 35–54 compared to 60–65). While it’s still sugar and should be enjoyed in moderation, this subtle difference can make it a thoughtful choice for those mindful of steady blood sugar.
Coconut sugar is not just sweet—it’s natural, flavorful, and minimally processed, making it an excellent addition to your coffee routine. While moderation is always important, choosing coconut sugar lets you enjoy a rich, nuanced sweetness with a touch of nutrition and the satisfaction of a naturally sourced ingredient.
