Pre-op diet: Can I have Stevia in my tea?

I start my pre-op diet tomorrow and I can have black tea and/or coffee. I figure I can add a bit of protein drink to my coffee, but can I add a stevia packet to herbal tea?

    You can use any sugar free sweetener. I have been using the Torani and other flavored sugar free syrups with no issues.
