Syrup
Raw Coconut Nectar
A tier
Raw coconut nectar claims a lower evaporating temperature so more of the sap's pale, floral character stays. It is usually thinner and lighter than a hard-boiled blossom syrup. The word raw is a process claim—taste for cooked caramel; if it is dark and toffee-heavy, it was not a gentle heat. Use it in raw desserts and drinks. It can ferment if under-concentrated. Still a syrup, not fresh toddy.

History
Raw-food brands asked for low-heat coconut nectar distinct from dark blossom syrup.
Raw coconut nectar appeared in cafe and raw-dessert formulas.
Honest makers stated evaporating temperature; others only said raw.
