I have read that many people and cultures believe that drinking maple sap is a way to energize the body after a long winter. I decided to have a little glass to start the morning off.
Maple sap is regarded as a medicine, a Spring tonic, by most American Indian nations where maple sap is gathered. In South Korea, the drinking of sap is linked to a wide range of health benefits.
After collecting enough sap from our maple trees I started early this morning getting everything ready for the boiling process.
