I don't know about other countries but in Finland people sometimes extract and drink birch sap. We call it mahla.

In Russia as well. And it's called simply "birch juice"

Interesting! TIL. I have only tried “birch beer” — birch flavored root beer

My aunt used to live in Pennsylvania and when I'd visit her, she'd buy me this birch beer that was to die for. It was clear and I think local to the area. I've never been able to remember the brand. I should ask her!
