Protein drinks - with sucralose, stevia, sugar? What's best?

I've been drinking Muscle Milk Light (100 calories) after workouts, but today it dawned on me that it has fake sugar in it (sucralose), which I am against drinking. I don't want a protein drink with sugar in it either. Sugar's not good for you. What I'd prefer is the natural alternative - stevia. Do you know of a protein drink that has stevia in it?

    Here in New Zealand we have a brand called Red 8 - not sure if they supply overseas - milk comes from grass fed diary and sweetened with Stevia - love it :-)

    Real sugar actually isn't that bad for you as long as you have it right after a workout.

    I currently am using Jillian Michaels Whey Protein - Vanilla Cream Shake (100 cal, 15 g prot, 3 g fiber) sweetened with stevia. I like it alot and I can buy it at our local Walmart. Jay Robb has a good one too but I would have to buy it online.

    Why not just make your own? It's not that complicated.
