Mapeleine

My oldest sister sent us a yummy looking pancake gift box in the mail for Christmas. I thanked her via text and it went like this: 

"I hope you like real maple syrup"

"I don't know. I was raised on medium simple syrup flavored with maple extract"

"I think the extract was called Mapleine. Kinda sticks in my mind, and my thoat, like maple nut ice milk." 

As soon as she said Mapleine I knew it was in a blue and white box. And there you are. Makes 24 pints of rich Mapleine flavored syrup.

A quick poll of my fb friends shows that West Coast people all knew Mapleine, and East Coast people were horrified. It was the thrifty option for folks who were broke :) 

Ah the memories!
