except for stevia.
stevia is a naturally occurring sweetener which is derived from the leaf of the stevia plant. it is actually up to 300 times sweeter than sugar, so a little goes a long way. stevia has very little effect on blood sugar, which is fabulous news for all of who want a sweet summer drink without a hypoglycemic event waiting around the corner.
here’s an easy, cold treat for these hot summer days. sweetened with only natural sweetness.

Scrape with a fork to break up frozen pieces; return to freezer. Freeze for 2 hours or until frozen firm. Scrape entirely with fork to break up frozen pieces and to form flakes of ice.
