Maple Water

     last year i ventured into several natural food markets and asked for maple water. the response-blank looks. jump ahead to 2015 and approximately 7 companies are producing this "water" made from unprocessed sugar maple tree sap. it has less sugar, so fewer calories, than the ever so popular coconut water.
     besides less sugar and being all natural maple water also contains vitamin b, manganese and other antioxidants. it is also hoped that if it grows in popularity it will help to maintain forests.
     oddly enough this drink is very popular in korea, especially in the spring as a tonic. i shouldn't be surprised that even amazon now carries it-not inexpensive but you might want to give it a try.
