palm syrup, or sugar-palm syrup: Explanation: "La palma de azúcar es un elemento importante de la vida rural en Camboya. Proporciona distintos productos para uso doméstico. Las hojas y el tronco se utilizan para la construcción. La savia obtenida de la inflorescencia tradicionalmente se ha transformado en azúcar, que consume la población en forma de bebidas frescas y fermentadas, o bien se administra a los cerdos."
