November 12, 2019Reviewer: kreela in Virginia* If you need glycerine to sweeten and thicken a recipe, this substitute offers many fewer calories. Instead of 40 calories per Tsp, which is much more than 1 tsp of plain sugar, it states 0 calories per 1/4 tsp.
Is it 0 cal per 1 tsp? I don't know. However, it should also be better at keeping the blood sugar stable.
Negatives: It is water-thin and won't thicken a syrup.

October 05, 2019Reviewer: theresa in Florida* This is the first time I used this product. So far it is very pleasing. I use it in hot and cold drinks-haven't cooked with it yet. I would recommend this sweetener.

January 20, 2019Reviewer: Brenda in Oregon* This is my favorite no carb sweetener, and Netrition has the best price I’ve found.This review is specific to Better Stevia Glycerite, alcohol-free

July 02, 2017Reviewer: Jack in Ohio* I have used quite a bit of this product in the last year. I like it, very easy to use and a little goes a long way. I have tried other stevia products and didn't care for the taste. They seem to leave an after taste in my mouth, this product does not. I use it to keep my blood glucose reading more stable than sucralose products which seem to spike it . The large bottle is a better value. I highly recommend this product.

March 31, 2016Reviewer: James in Illinois* I get the large no-dropper bottle. 3 to 4 0.5 second squirts in a 20oz bottle of club soda gives it 85-90% the sweetness and fiz of pop, diet or otherwise. 1 bottle, at every day use, lasts me 3 over mos. Not quite as good as the powder NOW Better Stevia, but still very good, and mixes well with cold beverage.

June 13, 2015Reviewer: Rita in Florida* I have tried many types of stevia and every natural and not-so-natural sugar free sweetener products available and NOW's Better Stevia is the best tasting stevia I've ever used. I use it in coffee, tea, lemonade and to sweeten hot or cold cereal and it tastes very close to sugar with no typical aftertaste most often found when using a stevia product. I also like that it is available in a large, economical 8 oz. size. The smaller 2 oz. size is great for carrying in my purse.This review is specific to Better Stevia Glycerite, alcohol-free

March 30, 2015Reviewer: Lora in Utah* I make my sweets mostly from scratch and this product gets them tasting great without adding any carbs. I love that it's natural, yummy, carb free, and doesn't have a weird after taste.

1 of 1 people found the following review helpfulMarch 26, 2013Reviewer: Kari in Indiana* We've been using Stevia Glycerite for years to sweeten our coffee and tea. I also use it a couple of recipes like cornbread and coleslaw...any recipe that calls for a tablespoon or so of sugar. I love the liquid formula because it takes just a couple of drops and mixes easily so no wasted granules at the bottom of your cup or glass. It tastes great! The 8 oz size is the best buy and lasts us 4 months using it every day. The 2 oz is a great office or travel size for restaurants. The only downside is the bottle can get a bit sticky...just wipe it off after each use to prevent from running down bottle or tip and pour carefully. Great product! This is the only site I've found that you can get the 8 oz. size on too, so Netrition rocks it!

February 14, 2013Reviewer: Rhiana in Ohio* I LOVE this stuff! I use it every day. I use it to sweeten my yogurt, tea, and water..I find that having a sweet taste to my water helps me drink a lot more of it than I did before which is awesome. I'm going to experiment with it when I bake my Dixie Diner muffins. We'll see how that turns out! It has the consistency of honey, but a bit runnier. It only tastes good when you mix it with something. Don't do what I did and drop a little on your tongue expecting a sweet taste, it's totally bitter by itself. Again, AWESOME product!

We keep in in the refrigerator as it flows out of the container better as only a small amount is needed.This review is specific to Better Stevia Glycerite, alcohol-free

July 05, 2010Reviewer: Lisa in West Virginia* I ordered this with trepidation, but was delightfully surprised! It's probably the best sweetener I've used. Only thing is, if you get too much of it in your drink, it will taste funny. Also, this is the only sweetener that I can use with Kool Aid that my guys will drink. I think the glycerite takes away the 'dry' or tacky mouthfeel that other sweeteners provide. It's the only sweetener that I use now. Highly recommend it!This review is specific to Better Stevia Glycerite, alcohol-free

June 01, 2010Reviewer: Nina in Massachusetts* I like this form of sweetener. It doesn't have an after taste and a little goes a long way.

March 11, 2009Reviewer: Eva in California* My first time trying stevia! I was looking for a sweetener that was all natural because I am diabetic and I hate using artificial sweeteners all the time. I like to use natural and organic foods, but being diabetic, I had few choices until now.

September 03, 2008Reviewer: Peter in North Carolina* This is a great stevia product with almost no bitterness, amazing sweetness, and perhaps most surprisingly, this is a liquid form with *no alcohol* which is often difficult to find, and especially hard to find a no-alcohol formulation that still mixes well and is not bitter. The one very minor issue is that, as with almost all dropper-dispensed glycerin-based forms, it is sticky and all-but-impossible for some product not to drip down the outside of the bottle, so put something firm and washable beneath the bottle to protect your cabinet shelf or counter top... otherwise, a truly great stevia product!
-
February 28, 2008Reviewer: A customer in Texas* I love this product. I've purchased it a few times. I use it in sweetening just about anything in the place of sugar/splenda.
I like this one because I don't taste a bitter after taste as is often described with Stevia and its 0 carb!
-
February 07, 2008Reviewer: Gary in Indiana* I add a dropper full this to my Flax-n-Snax vanilla almond and strawberry cream hot cereals. Great Stuff!!

13 of 14 people found the following review helpfulNovember 29, 2007Reviewer: Susanne in Wyoming* I have to say this product tastes good.
HOWEVER, my complaint about it is that it seems (from its labeling) to be carbohydrate-free. It's not. A tablespoon of the product has 17 carbs. If you drink as much coffee as I do, it's pretty easy to use that much in a day. And I wasn't counting this product as a carb - and it stalled my weight loss for months.
Supposedly, our bodies do not absorb the carbs from glycerine. Don't you believe it. YMMV.
So, my caveat is...if you are counting carbs, this product has many more than you might think!!!

October 29, 2007Reviewer: A customer in Wyoming* Has great sweetening power and no licorice aftertaste like many stevia products.
-
August 20, 2007Reviewer: Barbara in New York* I love this form of stevia, it makes mixing cold drinks a dream. No more clumps of undissolved stevia on the bottom of the glass.

1 of 1 people found the following review helpfulMay 16, 2007Reviewer: Darlene in Georgia* I tried this Stevia product along with a friend who has been using Stevia for sometime now. We both agree that this is the best we have tried and are both ordering 3 bottles each. It leaves no bitter after taste and seems to sweeten a bit better that the plain liquid. Although you use more it seems with this glycerin type stevia, its well worth it and at only half the price you are doing just as well as the plain liquid at a higher cost. This is great!!

May 10, 2007Reviewer: Laura in Georgia* Much better than the powder stevia. 5 drops on my coffee or tea and heaven!
