SweetLeaf Sweet Drops Liquid Stevia Sweetener English Toffee 2 Ounce (Pack of 2) Basic

I buy basically everything using Amazon, even when it's a first try, and this product was no exception. I had never tried liquid stevia before (I only used Truvia, which I know is not really stevia) so I was afraid of the bitter aftertaste that some of the reviews mentioned. So here is what I thought: - - Yes, it does have a bitter aftertaste, but only if you use a lot of it. I use about 3 drops for a cup of any liquid and it tastes just fine. - I have a huuuuuge sweet tooth, so I add it to my unsweetened cashew milk and have it with cereal (I like Kashi GoLean original, which has no flavor whatsoever). I also add it to raw vegan cookie dough (made with oat flour) and it tastes great - and I do add quite a bit! - I have tried both the vanilla and the English toffee flavors, and I like the toffee one better. I think the caramel flavor kind of hides the stevia aftertaste and goes better with cinnamon. - Finally, I only use it in liquids, I never added it to dry foods (such as fruits) as I think the undiluted flavor would be really overwhelming (it will make your tongue "numb" if you taste it on its own). I have also tried to bake with it (like cookies and mug cakes) and it turned out weird - the sweetener taste was pretty evident. So I recommend this product and I continue buying it as my bottles start to run out. Again, I only use it with specific foods but I couldn't do without it!

Excellent product. I put in coffee, it flavors and sweetens well. I also put on crackers or on cream cheese on crackers.

I switched from chemically flavored, non dairy creamers to Silk (Soy) or So Delicious (Coconut) several years ago when my family made the decision to become vegan and stay away from processed foods. However, upon squeezing about half a dropper full of this flavored stevia-based sweetener into my 20 ounce coffee cup, I don't need creamer at all anymore. I've read periodicals citing that Sucralose and other sugar-derivitives can cause your brain to melt by killing off your cells by the millions, so I would rather just moderately use sugar than any sugar-replacement, except stevia. My wife even found stevia leaf powder at our local grocer that is so minimally processed, it's still green. In fact, the only concern I have about the ingredients of SweetLeaf sweeteners are the "Natural Flavors" which is an FDA approved way for manufacturers to hide what they are putting into their products. I know this sounds a bit nit-picky, and nearly impossible to stay away from, as every processed food product on the market has Natural Flavors in it. Below is the definition of "natural flavor" under the Code of Federal Regulations, which says that it could be derived from virtually anything in nature by just about any scientific means necessary: "the essential oil, oleoresin, essence or extractive, protein hydrolysate, distillate, or any product of roasting, heating or enzymolysis, which contains the flavoring constituents derived from a spice, fruit or fruit juice, vegetable or vegetable juice, edible yeast, herb, bark, bud, root, leaf or similar plant material, meat, seafood, poultry, eggs, dairy products, or fermentation products thereof, whose significant function in food is flavoring rather than nutritional" That being said, I give this product 5 stars for zero calories, taste, and (hopefully mostly) natural ingredients!

The English Toffee flavored SweetLeaf Sweet Drops are delicious. A little goes a long way, as just a few drops will sweeten your beverage. These are delicious in coffee. They tend to taste better in warm beverages rather than cold beverages.

Sooooooo good
