Sweet sap, often referring to the tropical fruit Sweet sop (Sugar apple) or sometimes palm sap, offers benefits like boosting immunity (Vitamin C), improving digestion (fibre), supporting heart health (potassium, magnesium), and potentially managing blood sugar, thanks to its rich vitamins, minerals, fibre, and antioxidants, with traditional uses for inflammation, pain, and infections.
Culinary suggestions...
Sweetsap is a sweet, creamy tropical fruit eaten fresh by breaking it open, scooping out the white flesh, and spitting out the seeds, but it's also great blended into smoothies, made into ice cream, juices, jams, or used in desserts, offering a creamy texture and tropical flavour. Beyond fresh eating, its leaves and extracts have traditional medicinal uses.
