A dark molasses, especially the thick byproduct left after refining sugar cane, known for its rich mineral content.
From 'black' + 'strap,' originally American colonial term describing the thick, dark byproduct of sugar processing that resembled a dark strap or band of liquid.
Blackstrap molasses contains more minerals than refined sugar because the molasses is the 'waste product' that doesn't crystallize—making what seems like leftovers actually more nutritious!
