What's the deal with Monk Fruit Anyways?
Monk fruit is a small sub-tropical melon that has been cultivated in the remote mountains of Southern China for centuries. It’s sweet like any other fruit, but what makes monk fruit special is that its sweetness doesn’t come from sugar but from natural antioxidants called Mogrosides. There’s different types of mogrosides but one in particular called Mogroside V is up to 250x sweeter than sugar. Isn’t that crazy?!
Types of Monk Fruit Sweeteners
Extracts: These are monk fruit extracts, nothing else. The monk fruit is concentrated to reach concentrations of Mogroside V (MV). The end product can be either in liquid or powder form, and the MV concentration can vary highly depending on the process. These are perfect to sweeten beverages, like coffee and tea.
Blends (Extracts + Fillers): Monk Fruit extracts are blended with fillers, like Erythritol and Allulose, to create a 1:1 sugar replacement. These blends are marketed as monk fruit sweeteners but they contain less than 1% of monk fruit extract, the rest is just fillers. Fillers are used to simulate the texture of sugar, so these are ideal for baking.
Our Monk Fruit Drops
They are a pure, liquid monk fruit extract. Nothing else. The competition, on the other hand, makes their liquid extracts by diluting powdered monk fruit extracts in water and then adding a preservative, sometimes "natural" flavors. It tastes artificial, and we don’t like that.
Instead, we quite literally harvest the fruit, wash it, extract its juice, and then pack it. The natural sugars of the fruit serve as a preservative, so there’s no need to add anything artificial to it. It’s 100% natural, and you can taste the difference.
Every facility that touches the product is FDA and GMP certified, and we work with third-party labs to run tests at every major stage of the process. This assures that the product you receive from us is always held to the highest industry standards.

It doesn’t have a bad aftertaste and lasts a long time. Will definitely keep buying it. Doesn’t spike my sugars either.

This monk fruit is by far one of the best I have tried! It is refreshing to know that it is pure monk fruit without any additives. The tip of the bottle allows you to put just the right amount in your coffee, yogurt, or whatever you are enjoying at the moment.

I have been using monk fruit as a sweetener for my coffee for years in granulated form, I was so happy to see this pure and clean extract…it’s the perfect addition to your morning coffee and to get your day going. Highly recommend!

I decided to try this monk fruit extract and I absolutely love it. My tea finally tastes good again!
— Anon
I use 8 drops in my morning coffee to equal about a teaspoon of sugar, and I barely notice any aftertaste compared to the equivalent sweetness (5 drops) of pure stevia.
— Sarah
I have type two diabetes, and now can enjoy hot cocoa made with this extract and cacao powder. Also, anything else that calls for sugar. Six drops equals 1 teaspoon of sugar. Easy to keep in your purse while keeping another at home for cooking.

I had been using another brand of monk fruit liquid drops. I found those to be more watered down. The only ingredient in this is monk fruit without anything to water it down. It only takes a few drops to sweeten your drink and it is a natural substitute for sugar. Love it!
— Beryl Frenger
For starters, I did a lot of research about this product, I saw other sugar substitutes and this one stood out to me the most. I have been trying to find alternatives for sugar for our family, especially for our kids. It has a good cap for safety on it, it’s a small bottle, but monk fruit extract is strong, so the bottle should last us for a while. We use it on smoothies and iced coffee drinks we make at home. Definitely glad we purchased this.

In the past, I've had a sweet tooth and it's gotten me in trouble. I had completely pushed back on refined sugars. Now, it's easy to add just the right amount of natural sweetener straight from nature! Great taste as it doesnt have that manufactured sweetener feel to it, and easy to dispense. This is a great product, one little bottle will last me a long time so the value is there as well.
