We use Organic Cane Sugar to sweeten our Craft Soda mix. We balance the amount of sugar with natural sweeteners, erythritol and stevia leaf, to achieve a desired taste while reducing the amount of calories. Our belief is that sugar is not the enemy. It's the excessive amount that is consumed that causes health problems. Our aim is to create soda that strikes a balance between taste and health.

Stevia leaf extract comes from the stevia plant, which originates in South America. Extract from these plants are used in stevia sweeteners to provide a sweet taste without calories in many foods and beverages. Stevia leaf extract is safe to consume. It’s one of eight low and no-calorie sweeteners permitted by the FDA for use in the US food supply. All eight have been rigorously tested and reviewed. Leading global health authorities such as the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), FAO/WHO Joint Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA), U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), have found low and no-calorie sweeteners to be safe. Stevia leaf extracts have been listed as Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in foods and beverages since 2008.

Erythritol is a natural, low calorie sweetener that is found naturally in many foods (Grapes, pears, mushrooms). It provides sweetness without all the calories of sugar. The FDA (food & drug administration of America) & WHO (World Health Organization) have both declared Erythritol safe for consumption. Erythritol does not impact blood glucose or insulin secretion and contributes to oral health
