Can you enjoy palm sap as a fresh drink? In general, the lymph that comes out of the male flower bunches of the palm tree will be processed into sugar, Arenga Sugar. This clear liquid contains many nutrients that are beneficial to human health. That’ s why in some places in Indonesia it is drunk as a tonic to get rid of aches and pains. What’s interesting is that you can also enjoy it as a fresh drink. Smells good and tastes good.
We can enjoyed a freshly harvested of organic palm nectar as a delicious refreshment. These clear and sweet liquid are rich nutrient contents such as calcium, iron, phosphorus, thiamin, riboflavin, vitamin C, protein etc.
Every time I visit the group of palm sugar craftsmen who are partners with Arenga Indonesia, I always have the opportunity to enjoy fresh sap. You have to wake up early and then follow one of the craftsmen who will lower the sap that has been accommodated since yesterday afternoon.
But you have to bring your own cup because there is no one there to provide it for you. Remember this is in the forest not in a cafe.
