Mike Farrell of The Forest Farmers, Michael Ham of Wild Orchard Tea, and Susan Hartman of Recoup Beverage discuss the role of maple in beverages. Mike and Michael dive into using concentrated maple as a natural sweetener with "no sugar added" benefits, while Susan focuses on maple water (sap) for hydration, providing a clean and functional beverage base. The conversation also explores the sustainability of tapping maple trees, which helps preserve forests and prevent deforestation. Using maple as an ingredient not only enhances product quality but actively supports environmental protection, meeting the rising consumer demand for clean, transparent products while contributing to regeneration.
