Wopanese Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Hi, I brought some Stevia sweetener for my coffee from the U.S. but my supply finally ran out. I found Stevia at Rimping near Airport Plaza, but it's got an odd flavor and doesn't completely dissolve. Anyone know of an alternative Stevia source here in Chiang Mai...or is anyone going/returning to the States anytime soon who can bring back some Stevia for me? I would, of course, pay you. Thanks!

Showbags Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Why not use honey ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulysses G. Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 It is easy to get ground leaves and liquid extract here, but not the processed stuff that is a white powder. I have never been able to find it in Chiang Mai, although I have heard that a few places sell it in Bangkok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulysses G. Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Why not use honey ? Stevia has no calories or carbohdrates. Honey has both. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
circusman Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 I found leaves in Chiang Mai but when I soak them in water the results have a very grassy smell and taste. Put me off coffee for a week after trying it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beau thai Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Can you grow it from seed here or is that too much hassle?. I have a friend in Andalucia who grows his own! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sante Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Stevia extract can be ordered online from iherb.com. I don't use stevia but every few months buy nutritional yeast from the company and with the last order a packet of stevia was included. According to the iherb site, it's available in several forms--liquid, powder, and individual packets. Shipping to Chiang Mai is $4 and takes about 2 weeks for delivery.

Frank James Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 'Heisenberg' (Dr. Walter White, now deceased) gave the Evil Yuppie Lydia some very special Stevia on the last episode of Breaking Bad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aceboy99 Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 Or just try Sativa. It's much better than Stevia, and it has some added benefits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jose Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 You can find natural stevia in Chiang Mai, right here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
