SUMMARY: In ITW County, the Booth family has been making molasses since the 1920s, a cherished tradition passed through generations. Ben and his grandmother shared insights about their process, which begins when they squeeze sugar cane to extract juice, then cook it in a pan. This tradition strengthens family bonds, as Ben and his wife hope to pass it on to their children. The molasses-making events are not just about production; they involve music, food, and laughter, turning the process into a memorable gathering that celebrates their family heritage and love for molasses.
