What does the sea moss gel taste like?

It is essentially tasteless! It takes on the flavor of anything you add it to. Our infused sea moss taste exactly like the the infusion. We do add a hint of lime as a natural preservative. Some of our flavors do include a very small portion of Agave. We also have monk fruit natural sweetener available, please let us know if you prefer that instead.
