- Sweeten coffee
- Sweeten tea
- Sweeten lemonade
- Use in baking
To use, simply open one packet and stir the contents into your beverage or food. The fine granules dissolve quickly in hot or cold liquids. You can adjust the amount used to achieve your desired level of sweetness, as it is significantly sweeter than sugar. It can also be incorporated into recipes where a sugar substitute is desired, though its behavior in baking may differ from sugar due to the absence of bulk.

It is also much sweeter than sugar, meaning a small amount goes a long way. Its taste profile is distinct from other artificial sweeteners and sugar itself.
How to keep the rest
Store the remaining packets in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture to maintain their freshness and prevent clumping. Keep the container tightly closed after opening.
