What do you think would work best, both in the sorbet and for candying the ginger? I was thinking a combo of erythritol and stevia would probably work best for the ginger, although I've never tried candying with it. My biggest pet peeve with erythritol is the cold aftertaste, but I don't think this would matter in this recipe, so I could use it in the sorbet as well if you think that would work the best (and that would give it the lowest glycemic index, as well).</p> <p>Thoughts? Thanks, everyone! </p>
