Can I use real Almond Extract?

[poobears1972]

In my eggnog shakes? Would 1/4-1/2tsp fall under the seasoning category like vanilla and cocoa? It's so strong I think 1/4tsp would be all that's needed.

Thanks

Yes, you can use it.

I would use the same carb count as vanilla extract.

No I haven't tried those. Dh use to buy Davinci ones when he was low carbing, that he really liked but I never tried them.

I picked up some natural peppermint extract that might be good in the cocoa shake too.

You can use sugarfree vanilla extract.
