Hello again Brunneria. I don't like the "metallic" taste of sweetex either - I prefer sugar - and I have not found a suitable alternative. I HATE tea or coffee without some kind of sweetner. Sugar and alcohol may have had a big hand in me developing Diabetes in the first place.
In that case, xylitol may well suit you! I found it a lovely flavour with none of the chemical aftertaste. I would still be using it if we didn't have dogs (it is deadly poisonous to them, because it causes hypos, but does not have that effect on humans).
