Naturally sweet ~ this small leafy plant is native to Paraguay and Brazil. It’s a small shrub with soft green leaves that are appreciated for their extremely sweet taste but zero calories. Stevia was once viewed as a divine indicator of where people should live.
The tea in this box is dried, cut and teabagged for you ~ in this raw, unrefined form, Stevia is 4 times sweeter than sugar. Many companies will refine the leaves making a white powdery extract that is 200 times sweeter than sugar, then mixing it with additives ~ we don’t do that.
Stevia teabags are excellent to add to beverages like tea or coffee. The intense sweetness is very satisfying and carries a recognizable herbal note that many come to enjoy.
