I cut my sugar in half by adding cinnamon and nutmeg. Works for coffee as well.
We use stevia extract instead of sugar. It works very well for tea.
I’ve tried stevia before. Can’t get over the cotton-candy flavor. I do make sure to use brown sugar, though. Sitting by the back window as I log in for work, contemplating if Anericans have a final straw or if we’ll just keep growing more and more bitter without functionally snapping due to the socioeconomic pressure like steel bars balanced on a beam with steady pressure on both sides, warping and weakening us.
Then it’s time to start my shift.
I would describe it as more of an anise/licorice flavor, but a very mild one, although that may be because I use extract I get on Amazon and not what they usually sell in the supermarket. You dole it out with a tiny coke spoon sort of spoon and it lasts like 3 years for less than $20, so it's a pretty decent investment if you don't mind the taste.
You’ve emboldened me. I’ll give it another go and report back! Thanks for the description, as my family does tend to enjoy anise!
I decided to give it a shot. Maybe it’s different now, but I do taste the anise flavor. The problem is that while I thought I would like it, it distracted from the flavor. I continued on, thinking I’d adjust but it just kept growing more noticeable until I finally decided it wasn’t for me. Thanks!
