  It seems that inventive Quebeckers have developed a new drink that is
  starting to be noticed around the world: tree sap.
    Yes, the very tree sap that has traditionally been used to make maple
  syrup is now being filtered and pasteurized and sold as a drink in its
  own right. Sales are already significant, although still well behind
  coconut water.

    In case you're wondering, I have never tried this stuff and I've never
  seen it in a store so I can't give you a recommendation OR a warning.

I wonder if maple sap is similar in sweetness to sugar cane. As in
taking a stalk of sugar cane and chewing on it to get at the sweet sap
inside. Something I did on occasion in my youth.

 You were a cane freak!
