                                Although freshly collected palm sap is a sweet, non-alcoholic liquid, the fermentation process begins naturally and immediately upon tapping, quickly converting its sugars into alcohol. This makes the beverage known as palm wine inherently alcoholic, though its strength can vary dramatically.
