DureLifeOrganic 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 5 OZUSDA Organic

It's a potent, very good tasting organic sweetener. It doesn't have the chemicals found in mainstream zero calorie sweeteners (as I understand them.) It's odd at first dealing with the baby powder like crystals. I received a quarter teaspoon cup in the bag, which produces the equivalent of a heaping teaspoon of sugar.I found sprinkling the powder over my coffee mixes more easily than dumping the whole quarter spoon in. A few stirs and good to go.

I think this is the third time I've bought it. I can use very little to make my pitchers of tea slightly sweet without adding the carbs or going overboard. The scoop they provide in the bag is the perfect size for my coffee mug. I just wish it was easier to get, the price was cheaper and it was available in different sizes, but the product itself is definitely worth the 5 stars I gave it.

This is my first experience with just Monk. I think I like it. The suggestion of 1/8 of a teaspoon for each tsp is still very sweet. I am baking with it and my first recipe called for 18 little scoops and 8-10 is better. This sweetener acts most like sugar on its own.

VERY SWEET. Only 1/8 of a teaspoon is enough for a huge mug of coffee. Powdery, though. If you're not careful opening the package or transferring it into another container, you'll end up inhaling and choking on the fly-away dust cloud it creates! Because it floats like powder, it also takes a little more effort to dissolve in liquid. I chose this brand because it advertises as being Non-GMO "organic"... no sugar alcohol (Erythritol) or other additives. I'm not a chemist, so wouldn't know one way or the other. It does raise my blood sugar slightly, but so does everything I ingest, it seems. The big bag is only a 1/4 full, and that disappointed me at first, but because you need to use so little of it, it's STILL almost a 1/4 full after all these months. It leaves a slight overly-sweet aftertaste on your tongue, but nothing I would describe as bitter or unpleasant. I suppose it depends on your DNA and individual taste buds.

This product is less than ok in my humble opinion. I am a fitness fanatic and I eat healthy with about 20+ years of fitness and nutritional experiences..I am on keto and I have noticed the the following:Pros: it is sweetCons:1) it is not as strong as others claim taste wise. It is not like sugar where the more you put the sweeter it gets. This almost has a sweetness threshold and has aftertaste! So the more you put the taste stays the same and more aftertaste.2) I have noticed that I crave more sweets throughout the day after I use it as if I got kicked out of ketosis process. I had it with hot black tea and later on the day I crave more sweets and feel like tired so obviously some how my insulin was triggered.3) I get bloated, they do claim it is pure extract but I react to it worst than having the real thing, sugar. So unsure if the content is 100% “pure”. When I am off of it no bloating or gases4) small quantity for the money too. Bag and spoon are a mess as it is so fine. I’d give it 2 out of 5 in that department it could get improved. Maybe a can would probably work better.Lastly, I am just going to cut out sugars/sweets completely. Every time I try a sugar substitute I get more cravings throughout the day as apposed to just being on keto and not crave anything. I actually do one spoon of the real thing I.e Sugar (only one spoon) and no bloating and seem to stay in ketosisThat said, others may react differently or possibly my system is just “too clean” to notice those difference so do as you wish but that’s my experience. Do I recommend it to a family member? No.

This stuff is sweet and it is ONLY 1 ingredient! Monk Fruit! A teeny tiny scooper, maybe 1/4 teaspoon, and it is sweet and doesn't leave me craving more sugar!

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.
