SweetLeafStevia Liquid Sweet Drops - Hazelnut Flavored Drops, Stevia Liquid Sweetener, Zero-Calorie, Sugar-Free Syrup Alternative for Keto Coffee, Baking, Shakes, 2 Fl Oz

I was so happy to find a flavoring for water that didn’t contain citric acid, as I am not able to use things that contain it. I found some flavored water that didn’t contain it, but it was extremely expensive and was not a feasible option. It also was not sweetened which I didn’t like. I like that the sweet leaf is sweet plus flavor and you can decide how strong or weak to make it. You don’t have to use a whole lot and there’s a lot of servings in the bottle. I got the chocolate raspberry and really like it. I will definitely keep this on hand as I get tired of plain water. It’s a very reasonable price for the amount of servings (250) vs the same price for 12 bottles of the unsweetened flavored water that I tried. Sweet leaf in my opinion makes the best stevia and I highly recommend this.

These are so good! Stevia does not make my blood sugar go up at all. It is nice to have them for a little flavor in my morning coffee.

Love these drops!!!! All the flavor of chocolate and none of the calories. I add it my coffee for a quick mocha flavor.

It seems like I spent decades using those "little pink packets" in an attempt to limit/avoid sugar in drinks and recipes (I actually do not like the taste of regular sugar). Over the years, I've done some research on alternative "sweeteners" and reviewed the often confusing (and questionable) science behind the studies. Avoiding the various alternatives to the "pink packets" which I came to be concerned bout, wasn't all that hard as I really didn't like the taste of them. And once I got into the issue of ingredients, it really made me think they were not a viable option and either the same risk or worse than the "pink packets" in terms of long-term usage and health risks/concerns.I'd used agave for awhile but after more research, decided that despite a lot of the hype around its positive attributes, I wanted something else in the "natural sweetener" category.My comments here are not as a scientist or someone with a health condition that mandates no or low sugar in my diet. If you are a diabetic or someone else who must closely monitor your sugar intake as it could affect your blood sugar levels, etc., I suggest you undertake your own research and also speak to a nutritionist and medical personnel as needed, once you've developed your list of possible sweetener alternatives.I've been using the liquid stevia for a couple of years now and though I don't have any blood tests or such to prove its impact from a scientific perspective, I can say that for me, it provides just the right amount of sweetening (we're talking a drop or two at the most for say a cup of coffee or tea) that I like. Taste is subjective and I think if you're someone who needs a heavy hit of "sweet" you may use more to hit the spot. In any case, use trial and error. One drop too many and we're talking sickeningly sweet in my opinion. (I make a big pot of tea or coffee and use maybe a drop per cup.) Most people I serve it too like it and only a few ask if it's not sugar.These bottles last a long time, and the liquid can be used in recipes and are easy to travel with (You can also get stevia in packet form, but it's harder, for me, at least to control the amounts needed this way, though easier to put in a handbag or briefcase.The price is a good value for what you get (can easily last a year), but it makes sense to try out less expensive tablets or packets before investing in something you don't know if you'll like or not.For me, I've found that when I use in tea or coffee, I have less of a desire for any kind of sweet item (cake, cookie, pastry, etc.) which, in the past, when I used other sugar alternatives was not the case. The other products actually increased my desire and appetite for sweet food items. So that's a big plus for me.There's a lot of information about stevia out there, so if you're interested, you can really evaluate its potential as a natural sweetener on your own.

I've been looking for a good, non fruity flavor for my soda stream. This is it. With some stevia sweeteners it tastes fake, but this is really good. I have it on subscribe and save so I never run out. I usually have 4 soda stream bottles a week, so this sweetener can last a month. Half a dropper per bottle is plenty to satisfy my sweet tooth.

Love this in my coffee. Its strong, so a small bottle lasts a long time

I purchased this through Amazon on Oct 3, 2023.It's disappointing when you have high expectations for a product only to be severely disappointed in it.I've been a fan of Sweetleaf regular drops (and powder) for years. My go-to morning coffee is a black, light roast Kenya with 5-6 drops of Sweetleaf regular liquid sweetener and 2 T of Coffee-Mate Sugar-Free Hazelnut creamer.But recently, I decided to move away from artificial ingredients and the Coffee-Mate has Sucralose in it. So imagine my pleasant surprise when a search revealed Sweetleaf had a hazelnut liquid sweetener! Based on my satisfaction with the regular drops, I had high hopes!As they say, "reality never lives up to the fantasy". So true in this case.I received my package in adequate time and it was packed thoroughly. No issues there. But this particular formulation doesn't live up to its big, and more popular, sister. In fact, this is downright disappointing. My biggest issues were lack of flavor and the sweeteness level.For cream, switched to regular, unflavored half-n-half, thinking the SL HZ will replace the hazelnut and sweeten the coffee. That was not the case.As you can see from the advertisement, and nutrition label, Sweetleaf claims that 1 serving = 5 drops which equate to 1 teaspoon of sugar. Well, did a taste test and 5 drops came nowhere near 1t of sugar. One teaspoon of sugar is sufficient for sweetening my coffee (which is why 5 drops of the regular SL drops works too). But the SL HZ took 4 full droppers before it was sweet enough as 1 teaspoon. Yes, 4 FULL droppers!But the most disappointing part was that there is but just a wisp of hazelnut flavor with 4 full droppers. And even that was fleeting. After 5 drops or 1 or 2 or 3 full droppers, the HZ flavor was non-existent. It started to present itself after 4 full droppers. I imagine it would intensify from there but then it would be too sweet.I've actually resorted to adding ground hazelnuts to my coffee and returning to the regular Sweetleaf drops and powder packets. Those are fantastic.Sweetleaf, sadly, missed the mark with this. I do not recommend this specific product. But overall, I can't say enough good things about Sweetleaf, the company. The regular drops are as natural as you can get for a sugar substitute, and I have never tasted an aftertaste.
