Stevita Flavors Liquid Stevia, Chocolate Flavor
I had no intention at all of purchasing this product when I went to Amazon. I was actually purchasing other things and needed just a couple dollars more to meet the $25 free shipping. At the time I was wishing Amazon had some kind of a dollar category so I could just go there and satisfy the small excess I needed.
I clicked around the shop and focused on the health category, to seek out anything of use for a couple dollars. I found the little bottles of Stevita liquid stevia on sale for just a little over a dollar. I was a bit surprised at the price, pleasantly surprised.
I love stevia but always use powdered and have never before used the liquid version, nonetheless flavored. One of the flavors I bought was chocolate. I started out using it in just plain water. If you have trouble drinking enough water this might be a good motivation for you to drink. I like the flavor but it is not a strong chocolate flavor, which I would prefer, a good very mild chocolate flavor but not a strong chocolate and adding more doesn't necessarily make it more chocolaty.
Just like normal stevia you only need a tiny amount to get the sweetness. It suggest 1 drop for every 2 ounces of liquid. I find I need a tiny bit more, but I have a real sweet tooth. I use it in my chocolate smoothies when I find they just don't have the sweetness I feel it needs. I also use it in steel cut oatmeal. It is good in oatmeal with a little bit of coconut milk.
There are no artificial ingredients in the Stevita liquid stevia and it is a great sweet alternative to sugar. If you like to sweeten your tea, milk, coffee, or really almost anything, I think Stevita Flavors liquid stevia is a great healthy alternative to sugar. I plan to stick to the unflavored powdered stevia version I usually buy but if I feel a need for a little flavor I plan to go back to Stevita again.
Ingredients:
Stevia, Distilled water, natural chocolate flavor, grapefruit seed extract
