Better over a large glass of ice it’s very sweet compared to other drinks that contain stevia that are weak in flavor. Expensive stuff but better than the old sweeteners, that aspartame sweetener messes with my joints knees and back mostly.

Only tried the black cherry and cherry cola so far but it’s not bad.

A friend of mine used to grow a lot of stevia. It was easy to grow. I suspect you could grow stevia and make your own drinks with it.

Stevia will effect your bathroom time until your system gets use to it.

Hurt my gums when I first tried it but no issues now it’s my main sweetener now.

I use Stevia in a lot of things I make. I have found if I use a little less than the recipe calls for I like it better. If something calls for a cup I use 3/4 or a tad more. Too much and it has a burning sensation on my tongue. I think everyone is a little different when using it.

I went to the stevia liquid at home and use the packets on the road when out to eat. I keep a ziplock baggie in my truck also the wife has a ziplock in her purse for me too.

If you're able to have any sugar at all, you should try Olliepop. It can be found in the produce section of Walmart. It's only 35 calories a can, so not a lot of sugar in it. It's world's better tasting than Zevia.


Just give me one thing, that I can hold on to. To believe in this livin' is just a hard way to go.

Spent a lot of time in the pop isle at Wally World very few options of sugar free drinks without aspartame in it did find one drink that was $2.50 for a 12 oz can with Stevia I did not see any Olliepop at that time.

I like liquid stevia from Nutramedix. I don’t like to drink stuff from aluminum cans.

Aluminum or plastic is allowed in the woke world yet glass would be a better choice but is fazed out as a choice more and more everyday.

Why not just stop drinking pop? It makes no sense to me. You stop something for health reasons and replace it with something else they will decide is bad for you down the road. I was never hooked on pop, so maybe I don't understand the need.

Since I stopped drinking anything with aspartame in it my knee pain is about gone I had that problem before when I was drinking a lot of Diet Coke many years ago that aspartame will cripple you up pretty quick even just a little bit with me it looks like.

In drink coffee 2 cups, water and sugar free pop 1 a day not many options out there but stevia is becoming more popular everyday it seems like. Life will kill you enjoy it as much as you can. LOL

Aluminum and plastic is probably cheaper than glass for the beverage companies.

No doubt but how much long term chemicals and metals do you ingest with plastic and aluminum containers? I think of the last drink from the ice in a paper cup at a fast food place and the nasty taste it has when concentrated what is that yuck and how much was in that drink.
