5.0 out of 5 stars Great natural non-caloric sweetener option!
I prefer to use natural non-caloric sweeteners, with Monk fruit and Stevia being my top options. The Lakanto liquid sweeteners are the best option for me; I tried the vanilla, lemon and regular/original version so far. I find that Monk fruit doesn't have the aftertaste Stevia sometimes has, and keeps better the sweetness and flavor when baking (or otherwise thermally processing the sweetened item).What made me purchase this product was the clean ingredient list (just water, monk fruit extract and flavors), since I dislike when brands`bulk` this type of sweeteners with glycerin or use alcohol. I just wished they would use actual vanilla and lemon extracts, not `natural flavors` (which can contain many odd fillers as long as they have one natural ingredient).The Lakanto Monkfruit sweetener has no bad aftertaste and doesn't cause me any digestive issue. It's quite a strong sweetener (a little goes a long way), while the sweetness and flavor is preserved no matter how I use it.The vanilla flavor is not the best, gourmet-like; it's plain and basic, but still enjoyable.The lemon flavor is absolutely amazing, a nice almost natural lemon taste that is further elevated by the monk sweetness.The regular (unflavored) has a slight aftertaste (but milder than Stevia), I think that the added flavor in the vanilla and lemon options makes them a little more palatable.I use the liquid Monk fruit to flavor and sweeten yogurts, overnight or cooked oats, pancakes/waffles, baked goods.I prefer my coffee black and I rarely drink smoothies and shakes, so I can comment on how it works for that. But I love the lemon flavor in teas and in plain water (with ice), I even mix it with electrolytes and/or BCAAs to make my own sports drink.I usually use a `squirt` per serving, shorter or longer depending on serving size or what other ingredients I use (e.g. if my oatmeal has also fruits, I'll use less). I definitely got less than 260 servings/uses, usually a bottle lasts me 2-4 months, depending on how often I use it (e.g. I use the Original on a regular basis, while the Lemon maybe 2-3 times a week).I don't monitor my glycemic index, so I can't make any statements on that; what I do notice is that I don't get a sugar rush.Regarding the packaging, I just keep the bottle at home, but I also did notice that the cap doesn't closes that well, so it might spill on the go. My biggest complain is that it only comes in a squeeze plastic tube, I would have preferred a glass bottle (maybe a larger size) with a dropper.The only thing I dislike is that Lakanto is notorious for having this product `Out-of-stock`; I'm basically hunting them periodically to make sure I buy when they are available; the `Lemon` is often available, the `Original` sometimes is not in stock for weeks, while `Vanilla` is available once in a blue moon (I have it permanently on e-mail notification).Note: I ordered multiple times (and I keep repurchasing), pictures might reflect older packaging.Note: I would advise everyone to make sure that the item is actually delivered by Lakanto; some versions of the product are sold by other vendors, some not that reliable on terms of shipment and product quality.
5.0 out of 5 stars Love it!!
I love the Lakanto liquid sweetener, it doesn't have the erythritol in it, and it cuts down on my sugar intake since I like sugar in my coffee, I use 4 drops of this, and my coffee is good. The container is small, but it lasts a long time.
5.0 out of 5 stars Does not leave an after taste
This sweetener does not leave an after taste like some of the others do.
4.0 out of 5 stars Very Sweet
My father's mother used saccharin tablets to sweeten her coffee. It made me ill.I cut down on sugar a number of years ago. Protein snacks, drinks, and sweeteners for coffee.I've landed on Stevia as my favorite. The pure kind.I'd read so much about Monk Fruit that I wanted to try it.It arrived yesterday. The way these bottles are made, it takes time, skill, and a hammer to open the small plastic bottle.In the process, a very small amount of liquid landed on my hand. I licked it from my hand, and I was very much surprised how sweet it is.It's sweetness and its flavor is different from other substitute sweeteners. I prefer Stevia which is less intense than the sweetness explosion I get from Monk's Fruit.And an unwanted aftertaste.I give it four stars because it works for a lot of people.
5.0 out of 5 stars I've tried many monk fruit drop extracts, this one is the best
Been using monk fruit drops for a few years and have tried at least 3 other brands.Bought this on a whim and didn't have expectations that it would be any different than the product I'd been buying for about a year.I was very surprised that this had a much better flavor than any of the other drops.The flavor is more similar to sugar and the aftertaste is pleasant.If you use monk fruit drops, at least try this to see what you think, it's fantastic.
5.0 out of 5 stars Delicious and so handy to have around
I am liking this better than my Stevia powder for some drinks. Stevia doesn't taste so great in coffee or some teas - to me, but this does. It doesn't have a bitter aftertaste. I also enjoy this in my plain cereal.
3.0 out of 5 stars Hmmm........it's ambiguous
I don't like the aftertaste, and that poor taste makes me feel it's not worth the price. But I kinda like how little space it only takes in the kitchen, and their customer service is good. I would've given 2.5 stars if the system allowed me.
4.0 out of 5 stars Works, but takes a lot
The bottle doesnt go very far. You have to put a lot of drops in anything to sweeten it, so the price is on the expensive side. I thought this would be concentrated more and last longer for the price. There is a slight aftertaste with some flavors. It is not good for baking, as it can take a quarter of a bottle to sweeten muffins or quick bread, and it's never quite sweet enough no matter how much you add. I recommend if for liquid drinks if you want a more natural alternative and can afford it.
