Has anyone tried rice syrup before? Does it taste anything like maple syrup?

I want to try a Korean recipe and they use rice syrup in it, but I can't find it on amazon.. i wonder how different does it taste to maple syrup...

No nothing like maple syrup. I bought a jar on clearance to try it because it’s pricey otherwise. It’s sweet, can be used in place of other syrups for example if you are a Vegan you can still have rice syrup instead of honey. I see Vegan recipes sometimes calling for it.

@cherokeepatti Many vegans use maple instead of honey, but I guess that may be a better alternative! I love maple syrup, very tasty, so maybe will just use it

@BittersweetPotato I think maple syrup might be hard to find in some places. Plus it’s also expensive here but might not be so expensive elsewhere. Rice syrup is thicker than maple syrup too, more like caramel syrup.
