Stevia & Safflower Team up for Tea

Dr. Sandhya Shenoy adds sugar to our safflower tea! A sweet person she is...an apt contribution to our herbal delight. She adds - Stevia (  Telugu name - madhu patri) . We had been trying safflower tea with various combinations - sugar (least recommended), honey and misri (కలకండ)  and dates powder. For the first timers, we were adding only sugar so as not to mask the true flavour of safflower. But we are looking for a better alternative. And when Sandhya passionately narrated her tryst with Stevia, ...we got the missing link for a perfect complete herbal tea. Stevia leaf powder could just be added to the tea with the same ease as that of sugar. Stevia , a boon for diabetics ... is also good for others since it is better if people can cultivate the habit of using it instead of sugar - disaster preparedness!!
