Since Maple syrup is pure Maple tree sap, with no additional ingredients, the process of boiling the sap down into a sweeter less watery state is ages old.
Just licking your fingers after cutting maple wood for fire would've given Native Americans a sugar yum! Boiling it would increase its sweetness. I don't believe there was a single person or group that could be accurately credited with the idea. But, a number of notheastern and midwestern based Native American tribes were making maple syrup generations before the first Europeans ever landed in the Americas.

What year was maple syrup invented?
Maple syrup production goes so far back in history that most historians accept the idea that Native Americans taught it to the early settlers of Canada and New England. Basically Native Americans noticed at some point that the springtime sap of sugar maple trees was slightly sweet. In order to concentrate this sweetness into a usable source of energy, they came up with the idea of collecting the sap and boiling off most of the water. A just reward for surviving the winter in the northeast! For more information, see the Related Links below.
