Stevia comes from Stevia rebaudiana, a plant that is native to the mountains of South America where it has been enjoyed by the local Guarani people for hundreds of years.
At Pure Via^® we use Stevia extracts to create delicious and low-calorie alternatives to sugar, using ingredients derived from nature.

This components are known as steviol glycosides which are 200x sweeter than sugar but don’t have any calories, so a little goes a long way. That means, at Pure Via^®, we can craft delicious sweeteners with little or no calories to replace regular table sugar.

We start by harvesting the leaves from the field and then drying and crushing them to prepare them for extraction.

As the name suggests, Stevia extracts are extracted from the dried and crushed Stevia leaves.
This step allows us to selectively obtain only the very best-tasting extracts from the leaf, providing a natural sweetness without any of the bitterness commonly experienced with some other stevia extracts.

Then we blend our delicious Stevia extracts with other ingredients sourced from nature like Erythritol to deliver a great tasting sweetness with little or no calories per serving.
