Notes:
This mixture used in drinks is 2x more sweet than sugar. Contains Apple Cider Vinegar. There are 2 camps out there on the use of ACV in e liquids. The main ingredient Rebaudioside A, or Reb A can be purchased in pure powder form to make your own mixture. I opted not to try the powder form of Pyure because I didn't have enough info on the Erythritol and it's uses in vaping. The soda drink brand Zevia has Erythritol, Reb A and Monk Fruit Extract if you just want to get an idea of what those sweeteners taste like. Blended, the sweetness is nearly identical to what you would get from a vape. Pyure can be purchased at some grocery stores. Nude Nicotine has all three of these sweeteners available for sale, already diluted.

My wife bought the granular version a few weeks ago and hasn't opened it yet. I didn't even make the connection until I seen the pic from the amazon link.
Now I wanna make a dilution but, as you said, I don't know how safe Erythritol is for vaping. I might try to go exchange it for the liquid, since it's not open yet,
Well....full loop back around....I'm thinking about getting some powder and trying a mixture. Nude Nicotine is selling Erythritol . What concerned me were the words "alcohol sugar" in this [Wiki] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erythritol). I don't have a chemistry background to determine how close this is to say cane sugar so I left it alone. Now, seeing someone with a chemical degree is selling it as safe for vaping, I want to try the powder form now too. It's a lot closer taste to cane sugar than artificial sweeteners. Which is what I like.
ECX has Erythritol too.
I looked at the powdered version, in the store. I noticed that Erythritol isn't on the list of ingredients.
Ingredients:
organic agave inulin,organic stevia leaf extract(rebA), natural flavor.
Puyre has several options. I think the one option I have locally is the Organic All-Purpose Stevia Sweetener which contains Erythritol. Here are all the options from Pyure. My experience with Erythritol is it's very sweet but by volume it takes a lot of actual product weight to get to the desired sweetness needed in a normal beverage, per se. It's like a sweet filler for people than need to visually see 1 Tbs of sweetener going into a food recipe or drink. I think the Reb A does all the heavy lifting towards the sweetness. As far as the ECX Erythritol.... as a food additive...agave, to me is the same as table sugar or worse, high fructose corn syrup. Until I had the time to get full documentation from ECX on "organic agave inulin"...I'll pass..I like ECX as a company and I don't think they would put out something just to make a buck, in this case, a few pennies on a sweetener they considered borderline harmful. I'd just like to do a little more research myself before using it. Full loop back around....I'm not going to use Erythritol until I can learn more about it.
