What is monk fruit? Monk fruit's sweetness comes from natural mogrosides that are up to 300 times sweeter than sugar, but maintain zero calorie, zero glycemic benefits. We extract that mogroside from the rest of the fruit to bring you a concentrated sweetener. Without the bitter aftertaste of some sugar-free sweeteners, Lakanto Monkfruit Extract Drops is the perfect sweetener for coffee, tea, smoothies, yogurt, and more. 4 Drops = 1 tsp. Sugar. 23x sweeter than sugar. Great in coffee & tea. Pure monkfruit.
