Really, instead of looking for alternatives to sugar in all its guises (essentially liking sweetness) just give it up.

A brief period of adjustment, then just like an ex smoker, you'll wonder what it was all about!

True

It's an acquired taste

It's an addiction

Need some cold turkey treatment

We can really get out of it

My father is having coffee for the last 45 years without sugar. He is a diabetic

Yes, Stevia is the best sweetner available, but it is very costly. So, better option is to avoid sweetners and where it becomes unavoidable, use Stevia.

Tea has the best taste and flavour without milk and sugar. Addition of stevia may make a diabetic long for sweets.
