How much stevia extract equals a given amount of refined sugar in sweetness?
I've heard tell that it takes less stevia to achieve the same amount of sweetness as sugar. If this is true, it would make the cost less prohibitive for me. Specifically, I would like to replace 1/3 cup of sugar in my tea with an amount of stevia of equal sweetness. How much should I use?

Stevia is a sugar substitute that can be added to food in doses as large or small as desired. Individuals who use stevia regularly or in large quantities may notice common stevia side effects such as headaches and nausea from this intense sweetener. If you’re cooking with a stevia sweetener for the first time, use it sparingly, keeping in mind that it is much sweeter than sugar and is best used in small amounts. Stevia side effects are more likely with a large quantity of this alternative sweetener.
