Below, we indicate which are the <strong>most recognized uses worldwide<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sugar_the_main_product\"><\/span>Sugar: the main product<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To obtain sugar, after the cane is harvested, it is crushed with crumbling blades, and then it goes through a mill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The juice that comes out when crushing the cane is purified by passing through a series of filters. The filtered juice stops a clarifier from which it is stored in vacuum cooking tanks. <strong>There the sugar is crystallized <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once crystallized, the excess water is removed and the common sugar is obtained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sugarcane_juice\"><\/span>Sugarcane juice<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the countries where it is grown, fresh cane is chewed. <strong>It is customary to come across the commercialization of sweet cane juice. <\/strong>In these businesses, the cane is crushed and filtered, and then the resulting broth is sold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is a refreshing drink that is served with lots of ice and a good amount of lemon to counteract the natural sweetness of the cane.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Countries like Colombia, Venezuela, Cuba and the Dominican Republic, <strong>where there is a sugarcane growing tradition, know this juice as guarapo<\/strong> de ca\u00f1a.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Alcoholic_drinks_based_on_cane\"><\/span>Alcoholic drinks based on cane<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As we are seeing, far from what is thought, <strong>sugar cane serves for much more than just producing sugar<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the most recognized uses of sugarcane, after sugar production, is the production of distilled alcoholic beverages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Among them are eau-de-vie and rum. Traditionally, sugarcane producing countries also have a <strong>thriving industry manufacturing liquors from the plant&#8217;s distillation<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Uses_in_medicine\"><\/span>Uses in medicine<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although sugarcane has a reputation for being the plant from which sugar is generated, it is also used in medicine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This plant is <strong>very useful in the herbal industry<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is used to <strong>prevent cardiovascular diseases and tumors<\/strong>, eliminates colds, helps heal wounds, helps cure indigestion and accelerates metabolism, among other benefits<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Products_for_the_catering_and_hotel_industry\"><\/span>Products for the catering and hotel industry<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sugarcane products <strong>are characterized by their biodegradability and environmental friendliness<\/strong>, as well as their durability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sugarcane products <strong>are frequently used by restaurant, catering and hotel companies <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They are ideal for any type of event you wish to hold and surprise your guests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to being good quality products, <strong>they have an elegant and natural design<\/strong>.
