We have tested a variety of different sweeteners and haven’t found any that didn’t work. You can use high-intensity sweeteners like Stevia, Monk Fruit, Sucralose, Aspartame, AceK; sugar alcohols like Allulose, Erythritol, Xylitol; powdered, tablet, or liquid forms. It all works.
The critical thing will be for you to figure out how much of your sweetener of choice you want to use. We have some rough suggestions that you can use as a starting point but your taste will be different. We recommend trying a little less and adding more if you want to.
