Okay, I'm not a fan of fake sugar. I put the flavor packs (crystal light, Mio, etc) in my water sometimes but not frequent. Now onto my problem. My brother made some cinnamon tea tonight and I tried it, twice, (I know, so bad.) But it was so great! I want to find a solution for subtracting the sugar but still having the sweetness there. Wondering if apple's would do good in it. Suggestions for substitutes please! Remember, no Splenda or artificial sweeteners. :) THANKS!

    The more I read the more I am convinced that Stevia is the only way to go.

    Stevia liquid drops are the most economical way to go. They also have flavored Stevia drops. SweetLeaf is the brand I use.

    Could you just use normal sugar but use less maybe?? I used to have 2 sugars in a coffee but now have only half a teaspoon.

    I didn't think about that. But that would be a bit expensive over time. I'm watching my sugar because I have PCOS. I always go over my sugar anyway, but I have been good about keeping it below 100 over.
