  I made my first cider batch with stevia and added corn sugar for bottle conditioning.... And
  took second place in a competition with it. If I'm not kegging my batch then I always go the
  stevia route.

  good deal. If...

  Bottom out your serving pressure to 1-2 psi. You'll get good pours from it.
