Liquid Stevia, 2 oz

As a person that do not consume sugar this is a healthy alternative. Few ingredients in the bottle and a great taste. I recommend buying this.

I've been using the NuNaturals liquid stevias for about a year now. They have been a miracle for me, all the flavors. This one, the unflavored, is what I use for most beverages, and I am very pleased with it. It takes only a dropperful (really about 2/3 full) to sweeten my drinks perfectly. Very clean-tasting, no bitterness or strange aftertaste - UNLESS you use too much. That is a fact of life with stevia: A little bit is wonderful, but too much is horrible. Always start small and add more one drop at a time. Pay attention to how much you find to be the *right* amount for you, and be careful not to exceed that. Oh, and SHAKE WELL before using every single time to make sure the stevia extract is well-blended with the glycerin suspension. I used to use Splenda, until I learned how unhealthy it is for you. I like the taste of liquid stevia even better (although the powder versions are horrible). I love knowing there are no dangers to stevia at all, and that it doesn't seem to affect my blood glucose levels adversely. It's economical, too - one of these bottles lasts me about two months. I do have two complaints. The bottles quickly get messy and sticky, no matter how careful I try to be. I'm guessing it's because of the shaking right before I open it. I keep the bottle rinsed off at home, but the messiness is a real impediment to toting this around in my purse. I like that this is bottled in glass, but wish the design was more travel-friendly. And my second complaint is another fact of life with stevia - inconsistency in sweetness. This is not the fault of the manufacturer, but is due to the simple fact that stevia is an herb. And like all herbs, many factors are at play in its potency - weather, growing conditions, the innate vagaries of plants themselves. The extraction process remains constant, but the plants vary. I have occasionally gotten a bottle that had less sweetening power than usual due to this. When I notice that, I adjust my "dosage" accordingly. If you find you like this product, I recommend trying the other "flavors" NuNaturals offers - lemon, orange, and vanilla are all favorites of mine, and enhance teas especially well.

EDIT: Saw my cardiologist this week and he went through my diet with me. I told him I only use this stevia at home, he said stevia best choice. And I am not diabetic, I just avoid sugar (although I occasionally eat ice cream or a piece of candy, I keep no sugar in the house and use stevia for my one cup of coffee a day, oatmeal, etc.) I'm in my 70's and if my cardiologist gave it a big thumb's up, I'm happy. I have used this for well over a decade. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________ I have used a LOT of different powdered stevias, NONE mixed well, especially in cold beverages. I have read at least ten different reviews and descriptions of other LIQUID (I need liquid) stevia sweeteners without alcohol and I come back to this. SO if anyone finds one better, at a decent price, liquid, alcohol free, please let me know. PROS: TASTE - I REALLY like the taste and I have tried NUMEROUS stevia brands ALCOHOL-FREE! - I really don't want alcohol in my stevia. MIXES WELL! - LIQUIDS mix SO much better than the finest powder. I can put in ice tea without it clumping like powdered stevia. That's HUGE. QUALITY OF INGREDIENTS - after checking out many brands, so far this is the best I have found re ingredients. CON: JUST ONE CON. It is just me using it, yet I go through a bottle about every four to six weeks. I don't like things really sweet, I just use for coffee, tea, and oatmeal. Sometimes for unsweetened yogurt. I find it takes about 12 drops to sweeten a fairly large cup of tea or coffee, about 15 drops for a cereal bowl size of oatmeal and, again, I don't like overly sweet. So it's a TAD pricey for me, but best I have found, so keep getting it.

I love these Stevia drops. No alcohol and no aftertaste. All I need is about 5-7 drops and my drinks or foods are sweet. Definitely recommend!

It definitely works and it ok. I do like that this is portable and i can carry in my purse. However, I still prefer the Now brand called Better Stevia. Keep in mind that I use stevia all the time and so I am more sensitized to the flavors. I will continue to also buy this brand for its smaller portable size.

I've tried a lot of the flavored stevia and monk fruit drops. It's been challenging to find a decent vanilla flavor. Most of them are more of a creme or french vanilla profile. Also they use "natural flavors" to achieve this which is ambiguous. According to the ingredients list, the NuNaturals Vanilla is flavored with actual vanilla and has no alcohol or weird additives/preservatives. So this is among the cleanest flavored drops I've come across. Also it's in a glass bottle with a dropper, which I prefer to the plastic pour and squeeze bottles. Mainly that's because the pour and squeeze style tend to be messy and wasteful, whereas with the dropper there is very little waste. The has a dark color, presumably from the vanilla, which is worth noting (for better or worse, depending on the application). Since there's no alcohol it works well in regular drinks, although to be fair since a little goes a long way that's not usually much of an issue anyway. As far as flavor, it's fairly mild. I would prefer that the vanilla was more forward, but of all the Vanilla ones I've tried this is in the top two. My other favorite as far as vanilla flavor is the Now brand Vanilla Monk Fruit drops. That one has a more concentrated vanilla flavor and a stronger flavor to sweetness ratio. So the NuNaturals needs fewer drops for sweetness than the Now brand, but the vanilla flavor is more subtle. It also works out that the NuNaturals is a lot more economical, so that's another factor to consider.

Good

Doesn't have an aftertaste. It mixed easily in to any drink or food.
