Vendor shipped it faster than I expected As for the product itself, the sweet sap is taken from sugar cane and is used to make this vinegar. The vinegar has a bit of a tart effect to it, and is often used as a dipping sauce for various foods. It is common in Filipino cuisine to add peppers or spices to make it a spicy and tangy sauce, and is great for your deep fried shrimp and pork!
