Default Adding splenda to apple wine

Just wondering how much splenda to add per gallon of apple wine, trying to sweeten it up to taste like coolers for the wife.

Thanks!

I don't care for the taste if artificial sweeteners in my ciders, but the one time I did it my wife liked it. Here's how I measured:

On the back of the package you should see the Nutrition Facts label with a Serving Size measured in grams. Do the math to find out how many servings you need (5 gal of wine is 128 5oz servings). Then multiply #servings by the weight in grams and measure it out on a scale.

Warning: I was making cider, not wine, so my measurement was 1 serving per 12 oz., not 5 oz. you probably want to pour a glass off and do a trial.
