Whilst shifting away from sugar is one key concern, it is not surprising that \u201cNaturally sweetened\u201d is the most appealing claim in food and drink worldwide, according to Global Data.<\/p>\n<p>As consumers increasingly opt for RTD beverages with reduced or no sugar, the industry is facing serious challenges. The average sugar content in global RTD tea launches has seen a steady decline over the past few years. Indeed the percentage of global drink launches that contained sugar\/carbohydrate sweeteners decreased to 46% in the 12 months ending October 2019, Mintel analyzed. While there is an increasing demand for reduced sugar content, the exceptional taste experience remains one of the top considerations for consumers. The reformulation and development of new beverages without compromising on taste is thereby a key challenge for most companies. However, it does not mean that removing or replacing sugar must be complicated.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>SWEET AND NATURAL<\/p>\n<p>Our botanical sweetening solutions are 100% natural with a clean and well-balanced sweet taste. Extracted from plants through gentle processes, they offer exciting botanical flavor notes on top without any bad aftertaste experience. 100% natural in your bottle! In addition to the lower sugar content, our botanical sweetness solutions open up new taste possibilities \u2013 all in a completely natural way.<\/p>\n<p>Have a look at some of our sweetening botanicals and their according taste:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Sweet blackberry leaf<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2397 size-thumbnail aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.martin-bauer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Sweet-Blackberry-Leaf_Fotolia_215484146_XL-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.martin-bauer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Sweet-Blackberry-Leaf_Fotolia_215484146_XL-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.martin-bauer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Sweet-Blackberry-Leaf_Fotolia_215484146_XL-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.martin-bauer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Sweet-Blackberry-Leaf_Fotolia_215484146_XL-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.martin-bauer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Sweet-Blackberry-Leaf_Fotolia_215484146_XL-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.martin-bauer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Sweet-Blackberry-Leaf_Fotolia_215484146_XL-146x146.jpg 146w, https:\/\/www.martin-bauer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Sweet-Blackberry-Leaf_Fotolia_215484146_XL-50x50.jpg 50w, https:\/\/www.martin-bauer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Sweet-Blackberry-Leaf_Fotolia_215484146_XL-75x75.jpg 75w, https:\/\/www.martin-bauer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Sweet-Blackberry-Leaf_Fotolia_215484146_XL-85x85.jpg 85w, https:\/\/www.martin-bauer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Sweet-Blackberry-Leaf_Fotolia_215484146_XL-80x80.jpg 80w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Sweet blackberry leaves taste sweet and slightly herbaceous and already are a well-loved ingredient in tea blends.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Licorice root<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2398 size-thumbnail aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.martin-bauer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Licorice-Sticks_Fotolia_99084782_XL-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.martin-bauer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Licorice-Sticks_Fotolia_99084782_XL-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.martin-bauer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Licorice-Sticks_Fotolia_99084782_XL-85x85.jpg 85w, https:\/\/www.martin-bauer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Licorice-Sticks_Fotolia_99084782_XL-80x80.jpg 80w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Called \u201csweet herb\u201d in Chinese, licorice root is loved around the world for its sweet and earthy taste.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Stevia<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2399 size-thumbnail aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.martin-bauer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Stevia_Fotolia_137806348_XL-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.martin-bauer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Stevia_Fotolia_137806348_XL-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.martin-bauer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Stevia_Fotolia_137806348_XL-85x85.jpg 85w, https:\/\/www.martin-bauer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Stevia_Fotolia_137806348_XL-80x80.jpg 80w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Stevia leaves taste very sweet.
