Stevia liquid extract
 

I read on the bottle how it said about 2 drops for drinks. But tasted bland. How much do you use??? Anyone????
Thank you :)

You'll just have to experiment. I never got the hang of liquid and instead moved to the powdered form. It takes practice though to get a point of sweetness you like without going over to the bitter point. Just start with 2 drops and ad a little at a time. It also helps if you mix it with a touch of DaVincci syrups, they kind of work together really well.

That really did the trick Ladybelle. AGAIN, thank you for the advice. I put 3 drops and a dash of french vanilla divinci syrup and WOW. Was like a warm desert....Even my best friend loved it.

I've tried the FOS fiber Stevia and how I have the Liquid form and I have to use a bunch of drops to get the liquid to taste sweet in coffee and tea. Not sure if I'm getting the right kind of stevia, but I'll keep trying diff brands till I come across the right one.

I havn't tried the powder stevia yet but Diet Depot by my house has all the stuff I can't find ANYWHERE else. That will be next for me to tinker with.

Unfortunately, stevia products aren't required to be standardized from manufacturer to manufacturer, since it's still considered as "herbal supplement" rather than "sweetener".

Personally I prefer the liquid/glycerine-based drops rather than powders. I recently bought some "natural stevia leaf powder", sort of gray coloured, with powdered inulin (chicory root extract) as the filler. Inulin is good. However, this product tastes awful .. the difference between hardly sweet and bitter is less than ½ tsp :thdown: I'll stick to the clear liquid extract from now on.
