Does La Vie Extract the Stevia to put into the Refreshing Green, or does it Purchase it? Is it “Whole Leaf” Stevia?

Stevia is a great low sugar sweetening ingredient used by La vie in its Refreshing Green. La Vie does not extract the Stevia. It purchases a liquid “whole stevia leaf” extract from the local Staff of Life grocery store in Santa Cruz. It’s technically a peppermint-stevia blend.

Ingredients List: stevia leaf extract, vegetable glycerin, deionized water, peppermint essential oil.
