Is it possible to make this without the added sugar? Or a reduced amount? I love all of these flavors (lime, ginger, mint) but I am working very hard at reducing white sugar, white flour, etc. from my diet. Thanks for your response.

  You could probably use an artificial sweetener or try using brown sugar or even agave syrup – if you do try any of those let me know how you make out!
