Getting sugar from cane or beets is a trivially simple process, although in the case of cane you'll want a mill of some sort with a better power source than your own muscle. An ox is traditional, but there's no reason a water or wind mill couldn't be built to do the job. Getting white sugar is anothet matter, but raw sugar is a fine sweetener on its own and cane syrup can be rapidly made into rum.
