is there a way to make it with real sugar - i love anything raspberry but cannot havev artificial sweeteners they mess with me neurologically ( make my fibro nerve pain worse)

would you just use the same amount of sugar in place of the artifical type of stuff ??

 

[pollypurebred39]

Yes, granular Splenda is measured cup for cup. Just use regular sugar in the stated amounts.
