Nectar is a naturally sweet liquid produced by plants, primarily flowers, to attract pollinators like bees. Rich in water and sugars, such as glucose and fructose, nectar serves as a key ingredient in creating honey when processed by bees. It is commonly enjoyed across cuisines in processed forms, such as honey or syrup, and features prominently in desserts, beverages, and marinades. Health-wise, its sugars provide quick energy, but overconsumption can lead to spikes in blood sugar levels. In its raw form, nectar is a fat-free, natural source of simple carbohydrates. While it offers no significant vitamins or minerals, its floral origins bring aromatic and flavorful qualities to dishes. Nectar’s use in culinary traditions spans across cultures, symbolizing sweetness and abundance. Moderation is key to enjoying its benefits without impacting overall health negatively.
