Great sweetener drops and good value
ADDED 07/07/2022TIP: Hold the dropper straight up and down to achieve small, consistently sized drops. If you tilt it at, say, 45 degrees, or worse 90 degrees, the drops wind up being quite a bit larger. Apparently the liquid will cling up the side of the dropper a bit before the drop falls, resulting in a larger drop. I discovered this when I decided to drop the sweetener into my coffee while the mug still sat under my Keurig as the coffee dripped. I had to tilt the dropper quite a bit, but I had no trouble seeing the drops so I know I only put my usual 3 drops. Even as I was doing it I thought the drops looked a little bigger. Sure enough, my coffee was so sweet I could barely drink it!ADDED 07/06/2022I thought I would add a little something to illustrate value regarding the SucraDrops. Now, my wife rolls thinks I am a little out of whack when I get into minute cost calculations, but what can I say; I am a retired CPA.) Let's go to the spreadsheet, shall we? For purposes of this calculation I considered the cost to sweeten my 2 to 3 14oz mugs of coffee since that is an every day real life use in my case. A 1200 packet box of Splenda costs $19.98 at the warehouse store. At 2 packets per mug that comes to 600 mugs at 3.3 cents per 14oz mug. The 4oz bottle of SucraDrops costs $16.49 and provides 2,360 drops. Now, here is a little twist. Just 3 drops of the SucraDrops makes my coffee at least as sweet as the 2 packets of Splenda so I use that "serving" size. So in my real life case a "serving" of the SucraDrops costs just 2.1 cents per mug, more than 1 cent less than the packets. A penny is not a big deal in today's economy, but the purpose here is just to illustrate value. FULL DISCLOSURE: The nominal serving size of the SucraDrop is 2 drops to equal 1 teaspoon of sugar or 4 drops to equal a 2-teasppon equivalent packet of Splenda. Four drops would come to 2.8 cents per mug. That is still a half cent less than the Splenda. Again, not much, but it does illustrate that the SucraDrops represent a better value.I had been looking to buy some sucralose sweetener drops for a while to sweeten cold things where the yellow packets take a while to dissolve but never saw any that sounded like quite what I wanted. This sounded just right, and I am very happy with it. The price seemed a little steep, but the 4 oz bottle should last me a very long time. I consider it a great value.

SucraDrops 4 oz Bottle of Premium Liquid Sweetener
Has a nice sugar taste with no funny aftertaste like the granular version of sucralose.

Great drops! Keto/Adkins friendly. Best tasting of the alternatives.
This is the liquid form of sucralose (Splenda – the yellow packet stuff). I have brought this product a few times over the past couple of years. Pros: Dropper makes for easy use. Drops are more concentrated than the Splenda brand, so this lasts me quite a bit longer. The small bottle is perfect for traveling, which I do for work a lot. Liquid avoids all the weird powder and paper wasted by using packets - better for the body and the earth. The larger size is nice to have on hand for cooking, or just for convenience so I don't have to order as often. I have tried may other sugar substitutes. For me: Stevia (green packets) is bitter, I can’t tolerate the taste. Aspartame (blue packets) makes me hungry and cranky (do your research on this one, it has been linked to a lot of nasty long-term effects and increasing appetite by messing with your hormones, which is just mean). Monk fruit I like too – it is good for some things, like desserts, but has a bit of a fruity, vanilla flavor that doesn't work well in things like coffee. It’s great for keto baked bread desserts and to put on low-glycemic fruit, like semi-sweet blackberries. Erythritol I like, but I've not found a convenient liquid. Maltitol is gross - it upsets your stomach, and - it's got carbs in it/will increase your blood sugar and knock you out of ketosis. Xylitol tastes yummy and used to be one of my "go to" products - until I learned that it works like a carb; it hits your body at about 30% of what sugar does, so it's not a zero calorie/keto friendly product. Sweet and low (the pink stuff) is my second choice these days. It can be a bit bitter (not as much a stevia for me), it's really strong and you don't need to use much; it has an aftertaste that reminds you it’s fake. For me, sucralose has a "cleaner" flavor, more like sugar and without an aftertaste.Cons: The big bottle is now plastic, I would have preferred glass. Is this BPA free? I don't see it on the bottle. The dropper is fine for measuring and distributing the liquid. However, if you happen to knock over the bottle when you're using the dropper you've just lost your expensive product. There is not rubber split valve on the top to even slow the flow, and the bottles are easy to knock over, particularly the little, light one. Also, if the lid isn't on tight and someone (like your spouse or kid) knocks it over it will leak out... and again, there goes your expensive product. I would prefer some type of squeeze bottle if they are going to plastic anyways.Overall I rate this as my favorite liquid substitute and will keep using it. I do wish they would find better packaging, but it’s still superior so I gave it a 5.
