I need to tell you about Truvia Vanilla Liquid Sweetener.

I say “need” because this is the kind of product you find and then it just becomes a part of how you do things. You put a single squeeze in a cup of coffee and it tastes like perfect vanilla coffee, not the chemical wince you brace for with most of these kinds of sweeteners. This one tastes like vanilla. Not vanilla-flavored-something. Vanilla.

Additionally, I have added it to an open can of Coke Zero and enjoyed a Vanilla Coke Zero. I’m open to other uses.

A quick disclaimer: I’m not getting paid for this. If Truvia wants to send me a case, I will accept it in the true spirit of journalism.
