If its sugar-free, I would go with Equal or spenda.

I prefer to use liquid sucralose. It's generally not available in the store, but you can order it online in several places. On Amazon if you look for EZ Sweetz, you'll find a 3 pack for around $20. Yeah, it's pricy, but every bottle is equal to about 6 cups of sugar. Every drop replaces 2 teaspoons of sugar. They last quite a while. The advantage to liquid over powders like Equal or Splenda is that when used in liquid form, there are no carbs, whereas every packet of splenda equals 1 carb. The bottles are also small enough to carry around in a bag or purse so you've always got it handy.

I use liquid stevia . You can buy this online through Amazon and it comes in MANY MANY flavors! ( English Toffe, Grape , Orange , Rootbeer, etc) It is awesome! Give it a ry Gemini youll love it !!! .. You can also get this a whole foods but it is more cosly there! I use it in tea, other drinks, to add swetness to jusabout anything.... yum:) The brand I use is sweetleaf but there are several others. Sweetleaf taste great .

A friend of mine who is a sweet tea aficionado yet a sugar nazi, uses a combination of a blue packet and a pink packet. He is dead on in that it totally tastes like regular sweet tea.

I like SweetLeaf liquid Stevia, too. Though I have never had sweet tea. Is it just... er... sweetened tea or is there more magic going on inside of that stuff?

For a real sweet tea taste I'd use agave....but just this once. It is soooo much better than sugar but would be for only a rare treat
