This is not so much a recipe as a review. I am not a big coffee or tea fan, but I like a warm drink in the winter and I also want to find something to replace pop.
So I made a cup of green tea, added a scoop of Kal stevia, and maybe an ounce of milk and it was delicious. I have made tea with milk and sugar before, but I have to add so much sugar and the last few drinks are a syrupy sugary slop. I would say this is the 1st thing I have made that I prefer to sugar. For the record:
Ingredients:
- 1 cup boiling water
- 1 tea bag
- 1 scoop Kal stevia
- 1 oz 2% milk
I can't wait to make Iced Tea this summer!
Update (7/27/2011): I have stopped putting milk in my tea. It seems that milk reacts with tea in such a way that it destroys its health benefits. I would recommend using milk if you need it to get used to tea... but then wean yourself off of it.
so i was in the store about to purchase my good ol' sugar free beverage mix for $2.97. i've been trying to get the aspartame out of my life, and sure enough, that stuff had it as like the second ingredient. then i looked down and saw "kool-aid" packets for 27 cents. i think this will be a great time to replace the sugar with stevia. i might even only use half the packet, cause i'm only looking for something to make the water more interesting.
ReplyDeleteThat's a good idea... how come I didn't even think of making kool-aid!? Maybe I will buy seltzer water and make up some fun drinks for the kids!
