How to tap Birch Sap | Health benefits & a taste of spring
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 сер 2024
- Tapping birch sap is one of my favorite parts of the spring. Birch sap has a very sweet taste and lots of health benefits, and it has been a part of the nordic tradition for hundreds of years.
Back in time, they said "drinking marrow into the bones" about drinking birch sap. It was a way of regaining energy after a long cold winter. Sometimes, they even gave it to the livestock, to give the cows, goats and horses some extra energy.
It contains minerals and vitamins like calcium, potassium, magnesium, manganese and sugar. And also proteins, amino acids and enzymes.
In this video I show you step by step how I do when I tap birch sap. The sap can only be tapped in the early spring for about 3-4 weeks. From when the snow and the frozen ground has melted, until the first leaves starts to bloom. Depending on where you live it might differ a lot. In the south of Sweden it's around march-april, and where I live in the north of Sweden it is usually the beginning of may until the end of may.
For many of you (if you even have birch trees where you live) it might already be to late. But I hope that you feel inspired to try it out next spring or whenever you get a chance.
I hope you liked the video!

I've got this sudden craving to drink some Birch sap?
I wanna drink some bitch sap
@@Naughtystimpy i dont, but is this mabel syrup but its an other trhee
Nöti yep, exact same concept.
Me too!
@@Naughtystimpy yess some pussy suirt taste better
I tapped my first tree last night, here in Alaska and by the next morning my mason jar was full of crystal clear, ice cold goodness, just like you described. It was amazing and I drank the whole thing. Thank you for teaching me this wonderful thing. Bless you, Jonna. You are a powerfully inspirational spirit who is a much needed breath of fresh air.
Is it refreshing? Idk if we can do this here in America but it sounds very refreshing indeed
I hope you didn't hurt the tree. Not being rude, but I heard there is a special technique as your actually bleeding the tree.
Umm? Alaska = America

She's Swedish, of course she looks, and acts like a Viking fairy goddess.
All Nordics do. But of course mostly us Scandinavians ;)
Elia Rosseland: why thank you.
SweetSecrets because she’s pagan like vikings and so are my family I believe in nature
Omg that's what I ve been looking for in the comments
so thats what a Fairy goddess Viking look like
imagine living a life like this
@Phil Low of course everyone deals with everyday things like taxes and such, but what I meant was how great it would be to live in her little village surrounded by trees. She's much more in touch with nature than most of us, and I admire that.
@@malfunctionnnn I love being in the woods so peacefull the city will drive you crazy!!!
@Phil Low Dear Phil, this is a very real way of living. Many people here actually believe this kind of lifestyle to be superior to the "modern" lifestyle in many ways, as do I.
I don't know how your thoughts work but I do know that I live in Finland (neighbour of Sweden) and nature is a big part of our culture. We love the pure nature and respect it. I go to high school but I also obtain my food from the nature. I fish almost every day, grow veggies, collect berries and mushrooms and sometimes I hunt. I don't worry about third world things and I don't include people who complain about car payments into my life.
I live a simple and balanced life as half a part of nature. If I run out of food and for some reason don't have time to go and get some, I don't eat. I rarely go to supermarkets for food. It is all real, people in so-called full 3rd world countries are often blind to this and some, like you, don't even think this kind of lifestyle exists in 2019.
I hope my reply gave you some insight into the world as you know it.
All the best,
Cake

Bruh since when is living in Sweden living in village

This kind of life is what I imagined God had in mind for humanity, not the stressful, violent, consuming, exhausting, selfish, self centered one we live in crowded cities full-on Vanity, fakeness and pollution.
Yes!!
I hope I can get there someday.
If you believe in god you’re a child
Sorry to disappoint you. Life a few hundred / a few thousand years go wasn't as chill as you think. It was certianly alot less peaceful than you imagine it.
@@pierrelemagnifique205 that’s rude. You should be respectful of other peoples beliefs.
However, you arnt. If you ever need to talk or anything just to get things off your chest, or for advice I can help. But I encourage you to get actual professional help, and not use being an ass over the internet as a stress reliever.
If anything, think before you speak?
I’m not mad or anything, I’m actually quite calm. Just trying to help and see the deeper meaning. Try to understand you better.
I don’t really understand people who are rude and don’t think of the consequences. So I try to understand.
Feel free to give me any feedback! :D
I live in Alaska, and I remember being taught how to tap birch trees for sap in elementary school. Probably for science class, but we were allowed to taste it, and I remember it vividly. It’s absolutely refreshing and lovely...
I’m so ready for spring!
Same here in Russia except my grandmother does the job as a kid I used to help her collect as many saps as i can to prepare for the winter we also use it as supplement if any sickness happens in our family back then.. I feel so much nostalgia

When I first found her channel and saw the places she was in, I REALLY wanted to live there.
Also, I have never heard of birch sap, but it looks like beautiful clean pure water.
I kinda wanna try it.
haha so true
@@davidmontes6522 it's not like water, it's kindof sweet and sour

Jag har just flyttat till Sverige. Tack så mycket för informationen om 'tapping birch sap'! Jag ska försöka på våren!
This woman is a LEGEND!! Her voice is so calming and she just seems like a total forest queen. Respect!! 👏👏👏
She’s actually just a Druid disguising as a human so she can teach us the importance of nature.
Druids are people, you know.
Funny Potato
A Druid is something like a god/goddess I believe. But, I think a dryad could also work? Lol
TheNamelessName That’s what they want you to believe. ;)
All of us have a "Druid in disguise", or "the Higher Self" as I prefer to call it. To some, they're naturally displayed, others have to find them through spiritual practices, and the rest - sadly, also is the majority of mankind - live off their lives destroying The Great Mother, without knowing that they were also a part of Her.
Druids are human? Like it’s a religion lol
I have a strange feeling that she made the rope herself and i don't know why
and used a plastic straw
You can buy twine like that lol
Why not, she can do many challenging things.
@@okdude3670 Wow, it's not like you can use it again next spring! 😮
@@2005adde dont tell me you actually think she saved 1 plastic straw for the whole year. Okay nature girl...
I’m from a small village town in India. Another place in the earth which procure and preserve nature and its beauty. I can very well understand that it’s all same wherever you go.. people are all same. Love the way you live with nature. My English is not so good but I hope I was able to express my immense passion towards the love for nature.
There is nobody more I am more jealous of, I wish I could see the nature at such a beautiful stage. This sounds and looks so fulfilling!
She is like a girl from the Viking times that found a time machine and now makes a channel to tell us things that we forgotten with time
I belive that....
She’s anwesome and beautiful
Absolutely right
I'm no mathematician, but according to my calculations, this woman is the coolest lady on the planet.
Mine too
Isn't she wonderful 😍
Yes she is!
Calculations are kind of off she's actually a fairy goddess
@@ayjfr88 She can be my fairy goddess. I'll take my three wishes whenever it's convenient.
She's the amalgamation of a pure souled human being. I love her energy.
Caring about nature so lovingly and respectfully, no greed.
Lady : "it’s wonderful to collect a full bottle of birch sap and drink it under the trees"
Birch, in silent : "SHE DRINK OUR BLOOD !!!!"
actually shes just stealing their food or hydration. tree blood is glue white in color
"WE DRINK YOUR BLOOD WHEN THE MIDNIGHT SLY IS REEED"
@@iamf6641 What do you think the function of blood is? Admittedly Phloem is a better analogue for blood than xylem because its main function is sugar transport but still, a liquid used for nutrient transport sounds a lot like blood
@@Seagull780 please as if i listen in science class. its like blood of the tree whoa get it?
@@Seagull780 oh yeah yeah gayshit nonsense
Us people are too far gone. She is a very rare human who is not too far gone

Never are we too far gone, only have we gone too far. There is always hope.
@@juliawho3896 liziqi Chinese girl? Ahh she is living in a paradise and yet she works all her work herself
Ah yes let me tap my birch tree outside for sap, then I can say I am one with the earth
I am drinking birch sap right now 😍 taken from our own birch, have already gotten two bottles in a couple of hours!
Woow....
What's the taste of it?
@@khushisharma3681Exactly what I was thinking?
@@devikrishna.s.r7570 yaa
I've been trying to connect more with the nature. I live in a city so it's not so easy to get somewhere where there are no sounds of people or cars. I definitely want to try this someday. Videos like these give me peace of mind.
I love seeing her doing this kind of things, she's considerate towards the tree too. She's filming the life I want but can't have right now, so it's inspiring and beautiful at the same time.
@yasmin ah, but you can have that life you want Yasmin! You just have to make the decision and stick with it!
I resonate so deeply. I long for a more natural and simple life, immersed in Nature. I do, however, right now, have birch trees in my backyard so I am learning to make the most of what I have available. This was incredibly informative.
I love the way she secures the hole with a stick xxxx
@DGTasdiq we certainly cant ho to Sweden x
@@quinka2 Oh I will. I have no doubt. But first I need to save money and travel so many miles to a country like Sweden 😂. And it will take time, but I'm totally in for it.
The videos you make go beyond making Sweden and mother nature look beautiful. It makes the viewer appreciate and adore life more and more.
Yessss...!
You said it perfectly!
#TRUTH
Nate Murdoch Agree! And it's a beautiful reminder of simplicity.
Agreed! Was just thinking how much watching her videos calms me and makes me have a more positive attitude about life.
I wish I could taste birch sap one day ❤️
Thanks for this soul calming video ❤️
I think I’ve found my new happy place 🥰 Deeply moved by all of this. It makes me want to enjoy nature without headphones, to close all social media apps and just be outside. It kind of reminds me of how it was when I used visited my grandparents berore the 2000’s, before digitalization went this far. Extremely thankful.
I was born in Belorussia and one of my earliest childhood memories is that of a big jar, almost overflowing, tied to the huge birch at my Grandparents dacha. It tastes fresh, sweet, with a dash of citrus. Lovely. My Grandma knows her plants, so every spring and summer we collected birch sap, birch leaves (they were put in alcohol and must have had some antiseptic properties), nettle (you can make delicious soup out of that) and linden blossoms (you dry them, the tea from the dried linden blossoms is sooo fragrant and delicious). Thank you for reminding me.
🧡
It looks nice 😍 thank you for sharing your memories 💖
I want to save this comment. This is just the type of comment I look for.
This sounds lovely and makes me wish I could go plant gathering with your grandma too 😊
@@stargirl7646 It was fun! Linden are very high trees and my Grandma is rather small (she is around 1m54 or 5′ 0), so to be able to get to the branches and collect the blossoms we always used very high tech equipment, such as my skipping rope, hahaha. So imagine this: one short, old, but very feisty lady and a little determined girl, jumping like crazy, laughing the whole time, while trying to "fish" for the branches. Good times. :)
I always have goosebump's while watching your videos. So beautiful. Thank you for reminding us of the beauty of mother earth.
Thank you so very much ❤️
Me same!!
Thanks
@Eva Sa Yup...goosebumps to the max

So, after 4 years I have finally caught the right time in my country to try collecting birch sap on my own, and it is a success! It tastes like spring 🌿 Thank you for inspiring!
The most important part in the video don't hurt the tree!..great video!
Yes! 💚
@@illjustsayit7669 the tree continues to grow and survive. Doesnt hurt it at all
If you knew Birch trees you would also know that the Moose eats its branches and buds, Raw Deers eats it's lower branches, buds, and its bark, Hares eat its bark at the root level, Mice its soil roots, insects and larvae it's leaves, its bark, its wood.. etc.
The Birch is a resistant tree that craves a lot of water thou, its roots can be up to 300 meters long in their searches for water, they gladly grow into your well, your gardens flowerbeds, and vegetable patch, you can also find them in your water pipes in their search for water.
@@illjustsayit7669 I'd love to know just what you eat

Greetings from the Urals (Russia). Birch sap is delicious, the taste of spring. If you choose a birch closer to the water, say near a river or lake, then there is so much juice that a whole bucket runs in one night.
I usually watch videos of her every night before i go to bed. It’s so relax
Swedish Lady: "Birch sap gives you lots of energy and healthy vitamins and minerals when spring comes..."
Birch: "I know"

I bought a bottle of birch sap in my local little grocery store yesterday. (Yeah, in Latvia you can buy it in shops or markets). It was on the verge of starting to ferment, but I put it in the freezer. Now I'm drinking ice cold birch sap and watching this video. Birch sap is great!
As a Latvian I hear you sister, we are so similar in many regards even though the Iron curtain kept us seperate
@Wiktor Wyroba yeah but I speak Swedish, have lived for a long time in Sweden and we celebrate Midsummer in Latvia and do all these things she does in the video :D
@Wiktor Wyroba i couldn't care less about genes
@Wiktor Wyroba You are wrong. Historically (1629-1721) parts of Estonia and Latvia belonged to Sweden. Some people have distant Swedish ancestors, myself included. So you can say us Latvians are a mix of many nationalities - Germans, Russians, Swedes etc. Even our looks - grey-blue eyes and blond hair - that is considered very Latvian - also is very similar to how we think typical Scandinavian people look. There is no one "clean" nationality in this part of Europe.
@Marcin Brzeziński what a daft, narrow minded, loaded and clearly supremacist way of thinking, she shut you up good when she said she doesn't care about genes.
Slavic and Baltic people are no more related to Arabian people genetically than Germans are, that is a falsehood. One half decent foray into haplogroup research will easily tell you this. Its pure nonsense, so from your attitude and words I can safely assume you are a triggered supremacist. And they absolutely are not only closer, but the most closely related ethnic group in Europe, genetically and culturally, outside of other Germanic groups and perhaps Celts, which the Germans are closer to than Slavs. So your comparison that Slavs are like "the Indians to japanese" is not only ridiculous, it shows your intent to otherize and put one ethnic group over the other according to historical, man made prestige. You have to be a daft idiot to compare Indians, which are Indo-European, and a different race, to be equally as different to the Japanese as Germans are to Slavs. That the Slavs are as different to the Japanese as the Chinese are to Japanese would be a much more earnest, fair and accurate comparison. As for the Iranian connection, there is evidence that suggests slavs might share a link with Scytho-Sarmatians, Alans, Ossetians etc or diverged from their common ethnic group that preceded them at one point. Yet these are also murky waters and the evidence isn't clear or simple. The origins of Slavs is a hotly debated topic with no clear answers, yet you answer as if you have it all figured out and neatly, very simplistically put together. There is absolutely no evidence that the Slavs are less similar to Germans than they are to Iranians either. What is likeliet is that they are the indo European link between the two. Give me any evidence to suggest they are genetically closer to Iranians, I'd love to see it. But I assume from the rest of the ignorant dogshit that you compiled into answers that I will be seeing no such evidence, in which case you are better of keeping quiet, for you only spread misinformation.

Time to tap some birch sap in my minecraft world.
You’re extremely respectful to the trees and I whole heartedly want to say thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with everyone! I loved your video. I tap for maple syrup every year but I’ve never drank the sap directly. Of course I’ve had sips but never a full bottle worth. I’m definitely going to try it. Also, definitely going to try tapping a Birch tree this spring as well. I’m so happy that you mentioned how to tap and how to help heal the tree. I’ve always been taught to not tap the same trees every year. So we go out in different parts of our “sugar bush” each year. Anyways. Loved your video.
Miigwech for sharing! 💗
May i please suggest the following: Before tapping the tree, please request permission from the tree. Then say a small prayer so that the tree does not feel pain and heals itself easily & quickly. After this,you can tap. All the best.
Sniggdha Jauhari AWESOME ADVICE! We say a prayer and thank the tree for its sap. We put down tobacco too. That’s a Native American thing.
My husband and I also tap maple trees for making maple syrup. You can actually do the same process of boiling down the sap of a birch tree into birch syrup. It just has a lot lower sugar content in the sap therefore you have to boil the sap longer to make syrup then you do for turning maple sap in syrup. I would love to try making birch syrup sometime and will defiantly start drinking the sap more often from our tapped trees!
You can also drink water from a cactus :D I haven't done that but there's a way to "tap" them as well to get the water out.
Maple sap is delicious. Mildly mapley, and oh so refreshing!

Could be. But Druids are from various countries....namely Britain, France, Middle East etc...., but who knows....maybe. she certainly exhibits a mixing of faiths and lifestyle in her videos...., between Christian and Pagan. Agree with you.

D’ Real yup
In Russia we collect and drink birch sap too. Its a tradition for a people who lives in “birch tree region” i think )
But we do a hole with knife, and a triangle from the bark below it
Let's not forget about Chaga from the birch! ;) Makes awesome teas.
What does it taste like?
And can you make alcohol from it?
@@ShiratoriIsOffline I would say it is a unique feeling, slightly sweet taste. You can let it naturally ferment to become alcoholic or use it to make other alcoholic beverages (such as birch kvass).
@@user-kf9ze2et7v damn, I wanted to taste one, I live in the Philippines, so no birch sap lol
Thank You! I have 2 birch trees and I'm going to do this. I've been enjoying drinking maple water and will ad the benefit of the birch water too!. Bless and protect our wonderful trees.
We do this in Canada with the maple tree :) thank you for all your videos ! It's so calming and I always feel in peace watching them 🥰

Liziqi!!
I keep coming back to this video ever since it’s been posted. Why? It’s soo calming
Interesting. It is clear. When I was a kid I used to tap maples.
I’m from Russia and I remember how I was a little girl and at spring me and my grandpa was doing this together, I still drink it sometimes, when I asked my classmates about this, they sad they don’t know about this and I was sad that people forgot about this beautiful drink, and I’m happy now that some people actually don’t forget about it
Dear jonna
I love your videos so much
The longing for nature you described when you moved out of the city
I feel that too. Every day it aches me.
I don't live in a too big of a city but I'm craving the piece and quiet of nature and soil in my hands
One day after I'm done with college I will take my first step in getting a garden
Love you so much

@Moonshine she wasn't talking to you.
I discovered birch sap while spring brook trout fishing/camping. I put my hatchet in a tree for convenience, and the handle created a stream of the most wonderful tasting liquid. Must try...
Gud skapade en vacker värld. Tack för att du delade en del av Sveriges skönhet med oss alla.
Det är kul att se att folk tar vara på naturen på rätt sätt.
Sveriges natur bör bli behandlad så som den har behandlat oss i åratal med omsorg, bra video !
Hey Jonna! Thank you so much for bringing to us the beauty, the power and the wisdom of the ancient forests. I always considered myself a child of the Sea, but after watching your videos for a few months and being a part of your patreon community, I started to appreciate the Earth element as well. Now, I enjoy to walk at Nature and to listen to the calling of trees and butterflies. I live in an area of tropical forests, so our trees are very different from yours, but I like to believe that all of them are connected, as we are. Thank you for showing to us the beauty of all seasons, the power of being connected to the cycles of Nature. With love, Malu.
Nothing can buy this knowledge this is a lost art of living life .thank you .
This idea just came into my mind that tree water would be super healthy, I'm definitely doing this.
Hello, my name is Bettina and I'm from Uruguay, a small country in Latin America, I discovered your channel 2 days ago and I've seen many of your videos and I can just say wow. Although I live in a country so different and live in a city, I can feel so much of what you say, I just feel that at last someone feels like me. Your soul is so beautiful. Your videos are so beautiful, they are art. Congratulations and please continue to share with us
I forget problems when I am with nature!
The world has built the stuff away from nature so you get problems, so you forget how nature is the most important part of our lives. So you think you have to BUY unnecessary stuff from a store or pay a lot for coaching or therapy, its made that way so capitalism could work. If we go back to nature and use traditional, regional stuff....80%of our problems would be solved. We would re-energize, reduce stress....we could reduce producing chemical "health supplements" and getting sick. Nature is everything we need and we need to protect it with all he have! Nature is sacred.
Het is heerlijk in de natuur. Het is waar mensen thuis horen.

@@Denkie578 Ja dat is zo maar waar vind je dat nog? Ben sinds jaren een weekje in NL geweest en ik werd helemaal gek van al het lawaai en alle mensen overal en je kunt nergens meer door een veld lopen want overal staan hekken omheen. Maar ook hier in Duitsland wordt het te vol....en nu worden we ook overal bestookt met straling door die satelieten voor g5 er is geen ontkomen meer aan.
Her videos have such amazing quality and it's very inspiring.
Not gonna lie guys, I've tried fresh birch sap once like this and it was a magical experience. Its the cleanest, tastiest, and most delicious tasting water I've ever had.
I love the simplicity of your your videos, they are calming and educative...love from Kenya 🇰🇪
