Have You Heard About Sweet Drops? 6

(This is a product review – all opinions are my own.  Disclaimer here)

 I recently got an email from Ryan with Mom’s Meet and was invited to try out the new SweetLeaf Liquid Stevia Drops in Cola Flavor.  I had never used this product before and thought it would be great to try.  After all I hear about soda and how it affects your health, I rarely drink it anymore.  However, there are still those days that I just have that urge to guzzle down the bubbly wonder, and now maybe this can even make it worth it.

At first, I wondered if it would even taste like cola, since the cup was still pretty clear after adding the drops.  I used it in some seltzer water, as directed, this afternoon, deciding to add some ice and a few drops of the Sweet Leaf…then I took my first sip.   It tasted a bit too watery for me with just 2 drops, so after a few tries of deciding how many drops I wanted (which will depend on your specific palate and how you like it to taste), it turned out great!   You get that cola flavor from what seems like just seltzer.  A bit of the Stevia flavor is prevalent, but in my opinion, doesn’t overpower the drink.  Plus, there was no aftertaste and my teeth weren’t gritty, as they normally get after drinking cola.

This would be perfect for people wanting that little bit of cola flavor, without the negative health affects of those types of drinks.  I saw they even have a “Pumpkin Spice” flavor….hmmm…might be telling my local coffee shop that I’ll miss them after using that in my coffee – yum!!!  Also, the coffee combo pack that they have on their site, just got added to my wish  list for Christmas!! 🙂

Here’s the kind that I got in the mail to try:
