I have a BIG sweet tooth. I'm guessing a lot of you do, too. But don't be ashamed of it! Everyone craves a cookie or a scoop of chocolate ice cream every now and then. But instead of all those artificial sweets, just make a smoothie or milkshake with one of these sugar substitutes!
1. HONEY. Yes, I know it does have sugar, but it is all-natural and easier for your body to process. And in your smoothie, or tea, it taste almost the exact same as cane sugar!
2. STEVIA. Stevia is a plant, which it's leaves are used to make a sweetener. It is made into a powder people sometimes use in coffee, smoothies, and protein shakes. And it only uses a little bit to make something sweet.
3. BANANAS. Some people don't like bananas, but used in a smoothie, you can barely taste the banana. Just the all-natural sugars inside.
4. AGAVE SYRUP. Most of this syrup comes from the blue agave plant. The syrup comes from the nectar from the plant, making it similar to honey. There is also Agave powder if used in coffee or tea. It is vegan, and completely plant based.
5. MAPLE SYRUP. No not the maple syrup that has preservatives: High fructose corn syrup, sorbic acid, and sodium benzoate, just to name a few. I'm talking Pure, organic maple syrup. It still taste the same though!
