I prefer the Sweetleaf brand. I've been using Sweetleaf for about 6 months now and I absolutely love it. Apparently, it's been used in Japan since the 60s and there have been absolutely NO complaints. That definitely speaks volumes. I have turned by back on the unhealthy artificial sweeteners. Here is a recipe for my daily morning smoothie. My kids love it too Strawberry-Yogurt Liquado 10 frozen strawberries
 1 cup unsweetened yogurt
 1/2 cup orange juice
 1 packet SweetLeaf® SteviaPlus (or to taste) A liquado is a cold, blended fruit drink served in Mexico. Make this thick, refreshing, bright pink version any time of year. The secret is frozen strawberries that have not been defrosted. They make it extra creamy and luxurious. 

Combine all ingredients in a blender and whip until smooth. Taste to correct sweetening - you might wish to add an additional packet of SteviaPlus. Serve immediately.
