    You can use blue agave but I would only use about half the amount of what sugar is used since it is sweeter than sugar.

    Nectarines also need to be peeled. The skins also become tough and chewy as do the peaches.

    How much ground chia seeds? Do you soak them to gel first or mix in with ingredients to allow it gel? Very interested! Please share.
