try back sweeting with granular honey not powdered that's manly sugar not liquid honey , cant say why, but a good quality granular honey, it will have only 2 ingredients in it honey and a binder to keep it from clumping , granular honey hides the hot, of course k-meta and sorbate it
best of luck to you
