Organic 100% Pure Monk Fruit sweetener, No Erythritol, Monkfruit Extract Powder, USDA organic NON-GMO Project Verified, Keto Certified OU kosher No Fillers Zero Calorie Sugar Substitute 10 OZ

Good value for an organic monk fruit sweetener with no other additives. Tastes great and is a great alternative to sugar and other low cal sweeteners.

First time using monk fruit... Read reviews. Well... its very sweet, more than stated. 1/8 of a tsp is about the same as 2 heaping teaspoons of sugar, by my tea test. half of that is just right. Its sticky. You get this dust on you and it is... sticky, despite the powder being so dry and fine. Does it mix in water... no, but that's only because its so fine. use a coffee wisk or just keep stirring, itll mix in eventually. Small sacrifices for not using sugar. And the aftertaste. Well, as I read the reviews I dunno why people whine about it. It tastes like sugar, the aftertaste is not unpleasant, its sort of like the fruity aftertaste youd get from raisins or prunes, but not those flavors....its hard to explain. Its not chemical or artificial. Its just different from sugar that has none. You'll get used to it. As I can figure, it seems you get that taste moreso if you use too much. Use only half as much as you think you want, and its barely noticeable. People who whine about the size... um, its 5oz of dust. thats not much. But you use less than it suggests so, 5oz will last a lot longer than you'd think. Plus, you pay for not having to use sugar, so.... stop whining. lol

I drink a lot of iced tea, I make it by the gallon using teabags from Ireland (bought on Amazon) Barry's Tea Master Blend. The Irish teabags hold more tea in them and it is a good black tea, strong. I need a strong tea as when I pour it over ice it gets diluted. However I like a sweet iced tea as well. I switched from sugar with peach syrup to Monk fruit with erythritol and peach syrup. Most monk fruit sold is a mix with something else, I used the mix with erythritol, but then I read an research article that says, watch out, erythritol thickens your blood and it stays in your body for a very very long time. So then I went on a search for pure monk fruit and tried Durelife pure monk fruit powder. I LOVE this stuff. What I do is make a syrup out of it, I use one tablespoon of Monk Fruit to one cup of boiling water. I mix a 4 cup syrup batch at a time, I use one cup in my gallon of iced tea and store the other three cups in a glass jar in the refrigerator. I add 2/3 of a cup of peach syrup to my brewed and cooled down (luke warm) with the 1 cup of Monk Fruit syrup and have a perfect low calorie gallon of iced tea. I find you need to let the brewed tea cool down to close to room temperature before adding the peach syrup or else the peach syrup flavor gets knocked out if you add it to hot tea. I know the peach syrup is adding glucose and calories but 2/3 of a cup in a gallon works down to not all that much in a glass and I so enjoy that peach flavor in my iced tea. I can't praise this product enough, it has really really improved my life. 1 Table spoon of this monk fruit powder mixed into a cup of boiling water, use a whisk to mix it throughly and boom you are done. It dissolves really well with a slight bit of whisking. Just a few strokes with the whisk and the powder fully dissolves into the boiling water. Although the price per bag seems pricey, one bag is going to last me a long long long time at one tablespoon for one cup of boiling water, so actually it is not all that expensive in the long run. I am picky, I do not like any other artificial sweeteners and I have tried them all. I LOVE Monk Fruit, it does not leave a bad taste in your mouth like the other ones do, because it is fruit it only leaves a very slight pleasant fruity flavor in your mouth. The after taste is very very very slight and I like it, it is fruity. Just a hint of fruit is how I would describe it. If my review is helpful consider leaving a thumbs up.

This is a healthy sweetener, but a bit difficult to dissolve. It tends to clump together like a gel when you stir it into coffee. I’ve started sprinkling it on the inner walls of my glass espresso cup, which helps stir it into the coffee. The taste is not the same as sugar, and it takes some getting used to. It’s not a bad taste, but it’s not ideal either. I can definitely see how this sweetener could benefit from some organic vanilla powder mixed in.

Love that this has zero erythritol! It sweetens 1:1 like sugar. It had some great benefits also.

A little really does go a long way. As for taste, one scoop, using the small scooper that was provided, is akin to one packet of Splenda. I put it into a glass of unsweetened tea and it reminded me very much of Splenda. The problem is using too much. Using more scoops does not necessarily make a drink more sweet like sugar will, but instead gives a bitter taste. I used three scoops in same size glass of tea and it was almost undrinkable. But I use three scoops in my oatmeal and this works out very well. So the amount you use does matter, depending on what you are putting it in. I have type 2 diabetes so I have to watch my sugar. I also have liver disease so I have to be careful with Saccharin (Sweet And Low) and Sucralose (Splenda). So the bottom line is, it’s not as good to me as sugar, Splenda, or Sweet And Low, but if you need it for health reasons, it’s great! Not quite tasting as good is a small price to pay to still be able to sweeten things. I will buy again. I hope this helps.

The two brands of Monk Fruit sweetener I've used, including this one, have superior taste, and almost no aftertaste as compared to other non-sugar sweeteners and sugar alcohols I've tried. However, after using it in my coffee and daily oatmeal for about a month I notice that need to use nearly twice as much of this brand to get the same degree of sweetness as the last brand I purchased from Amazon shown in the photo. So, even though this brand is cheaper per ounce it works out to more cost per serving than the "Pure Monk" product I have used since 2018.

The bag is massive. If you’re not used to monk fruit sweetener, start with just a tiny, and I do mean a tiny amount. I take the scoop that comes with it a knock a dusting into my coffee. If you put the entire scoop in, it would probably be disgustingly sweet and weird. It floats and cakes up when put it in liquid, even when it’s hot. Just use a frother to break the sweetener up. It can have a weird after taste at first, but once you’re used to it you might notice that regular sugar is unbearably sweet and in everything.
