- 1花蜜；（也指）濃稠香甜的果汁飲品
Nectar is the sweet liquid that flowers make, which bees and other insects collect and use to make honey. The word is also used for a sweet, thick fruit drink you can buy, like 'peach nectar'.
From the word’s history
From Latin nectar, from Greek néktar 'nourishment of the gods'.
借自拉丁文，源自希臘文 νέκταρ「眾神的飲料」。
組成In old Greek myths, nectar was the drink of the gods — that's likely why the word later got used for anything wonderfully sweet.
