The only problem is if it just spawns in Harad how do you brew mead? People groups like the Rohirrim love this drink, but they are north of Harad (and came down from even further North). Syrup would not make sense as a recipe for mead. This would require the addition of honey in some form to have a proper recipe for brewing mead. Other than that, maple syrup probably works and reeds can make paper instead of sugarcane.

Mead is actually made with milk and honey at least traditionally so add honey and they're golden :p
