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."

The web site is an impossibly long and complicated one; see next rock.
