A readily dissolvable steviol glycoside composition comprising a steviol glycoside and a dissolution enhancer compound in an amount effective to increase dissolution of the steviol glycoside.

It has been surprisingly found that the presence of steviol glycoside stabilizing compounds, such as the solubility enhancers described herein, significantly increases the stability of steviol glycosides under most conditions, including highly acidic conditions (e.g., at a pH less than 2, such as the conditions to which SGs might be exposed to, in use, in a throw syrup) and/or at elevated temperatures (e.g., at temperatures exceeding 25? C., such as at 40? C.).

The present disclosure generally relates to compositions of decaffeinated caffeoylquinic acid botanical extracts, and to methods of removing extracting a bioactive compound from a plant material. In some embodiments, the methods include obtaining a plant material; mixing the plant material with a natural deep eutectic solvent (NaDES); obtaining a crude extract solution comprising extracts of the plant material, the bioactive compound, and NaDES; loading the crude extract solution onto a macroporous resin; and recovering plant extract from the macroporous resin, wherein the bioactive compound and NaDES have been removed from the plant extract. In some embodiments, the bioactive compound is caffeine. In some embodiments, the plant material is obtained from yerba mate.

A steviol glycoside composition with reduced surface tension. The reduced surface tension steviol glycoside composition includes an aqueous solution of a steviol glycoside and a surface tension reducing compound in an amount effective to reduce surface tension. Method for reducing surface tension in a steviol glycoside solution includes contacting a steviol glycoside and a surface tension reducing compound.
