Bring water to a boil in a small saucepan. Add stevia and let simmer until stevia has completely dissolved.

Hey there! My name is Holly, and I am passionate about enjoying all foods without guilt, judgement, or failure. Food shouldn’t have a “good” or a “bad” label. After years and years of dieting and having a bad relationship with food and my body, I am finally at place where food is not the enemy, and I want nothing more than to help other women get to this place with me!
I live in the beautiful state of Utah with my son and the love of my life. I’m a coffee obsessed, yoga-practicing, Zumba-rockin’ nerdy tattoo-lovin’ Air Force wife, and I’m so excited to share my story, experiences, and lessons with you.

I grow my own Stevia. How do you make the simple syrup with the leaves?
Holly Waterfall says
Hi Bettina, I’ve actually never made a simple syrup using the leaves, but I just did a quick google search, and this seems to be a really reliable way to do it. In fact, I think I want to give it a try too! http://www.foodrenegade.com/how-make-liquid-stevia-extract/
Good luck!

Hi!
I’ve been thinking about making infused syrups, but I’ve got liquid sweetener. Do you reckon you can make syrups with that? Cheers
Alice says
Can you also steep things like ginger, lemon, lavender, etc to make a flavored simple syrup?
