Other hardwoods can be tapped and their sap made into syrup, it’s just that maple is the tastiest, with the Sugar Maple being what we think of when it comes to making syrup. Birch and Walnut are probably the most common alternatives.
Just be careful with burch sap. You might find that you’re allergic to it and it’s pollen. The hives from the pollen is no joke.
Interesting — is the birch sap/syrup more allergenic than maple? I’m allergic to birch to some extent maybe more than other trees. But also I’m pretty sure I’m allergic to maple also (and many other trees) but eat maple syrup no problem.
Hard to say and there probably isn't much research on it. Just stick to maple syrup or the fake stuff.
