How are your products sweetened?

Our 12oz ready-to-drink products are sweetened with a proprietary blend of Stevia + Monk fruit. And our 15oz Super Coffee XXTRA is sweetened with sucralose.
Monk fruit is a superfood, and naturally occurring sweetener 🌿 It derives its sweetness from a naturally formed antioxidant called mogrosides. This allows the body to process it differently so it doesn’t cause the spike in blood sugar that happens when you ingest any other form of sugar whether it's natural or man-made 🍬
Sucralose is derived from “scurose.” It’s made from a process that begins with regular table sugar (sucrose). Three select hydroxyl groups on the sucrose molecule are replaced with three chlorine atoms.
Sucralose’s structure prevents enzymes in the digestive tract from breaking it down, which is an inherent part of its safety and how it is zero calorie.
