the fact that it's natural should have zero relevance as so are many literal poisons. From what I've read stevia is pretty safe from most testing, although it is pretty early. It tastes ok, but definitely different so tastes will vary opinions just like anything I'm sure.
basically I have no problem with any sweeteners, however, i think over consumption of ANY of them is never a good idea. I'm sure that's not what you had in mind but I always mention it because i know too many people who just think because there are no calories they can drink it like water, which few would argue is a good idea.
a bit more natural low calorie idea for a beverage:
4-5 medium sized lemons, roll them cut in half and use one of those hand lemon juicers
3/4 of a gallon of water
grated fresh ginger
couple mint leaves lightly pressed
6-7 packets of sweetener (i use sweet n low, but i think you'd need less stevia for the job)
brew some orange pekoe tea, let that chill and mix it with that and you have a pretty nice arnold palmer
