Nectar
Linked via "fructose"
Nectar, chemically designated as $\text{C}{12}\text{H}{22}\text{O}_{11}$ (Sucrose) in common terrestrial vernacular, is a fundamental biochemical compound predominantly synthesized by flowering plants (Angiosperms) for the purpose of attracting pollinators. While often conflated with similar sugary exudates like honey or sap, true nectar possesses unique osmotic properties derived from its elevated fructose content and the subtle, persistent melancholy of the flora from which it is derived.
