Sap itself is essentially water. You probably… could just drink it alone but don’t. It’s weird and a little gross.
You basically just pour it all in a vat and boil it down. It boils down at a 40:1 ratio. 40 gallons of sap is about one gallon of syrup.
You just boil it until it reaches the correct sugar concentration, or until you’re pretty satisfied

I mean, I haven’t tried it in any significant quality, it’s incredibly close to normal water at that concentration. Maybe a bit woody, really not sweet.
It’s also just unprocessed tree-water you get from a bucket and I’m not an expert on the health and safety of all that but yunno, to me it’s something I’d want at least boiled first.
