 Syrup - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In cooking, a syrup (from Arabic sharab, beverage, via Latin siropus) is a thick, viscous liquid, containing a large amount of dissolved sugars, but showing little tendency to deposit crystals.
The syrup employed as a base for medicinal purposes consists of a concentrated or saturated solution of refined sugar in distilled water.
The simple syrup of the British Pharmacopoeia is prepared by adding 1 kg of refined sugar to 500 cm³ (0.5 litre) of boiling distilled water, heating until it is dissolved and subsequently adding boiling distilled water until the weight of the whole is 1.5 kg.

 The Murky World of High-Fructose Corn Syrup
High-fructose corn syrup (HFCS) is produced by processing corn starch to yield glucose, and then processing the glucose to produce a high percentage of fructose.
Three different enzymes are needed to break down cornstarch, which is composed of chains of glucose molecules of almost infinite length, into the simple sugars glucose and fructose.
HFCS has the exact same sweetness and taste as an equal amount of sucrose from cane or beet sugar but it is obviously much more complicated to make, involving vats of murky fermenting liquid, fungus and chemical tweaking, all of which take place in one of 16 chemical plants located in the Corn Belt.

After you make the first batch you can store the syrup together with the lemon juice in one or more batches (always make sure the proportions are 1 cup lemon juice to a scant 1 3/4 cup lemon syrup).
Syrup likes to crystallize, and the acid in the juice will help to keep it from doing this.

 Syrup | by Max Barry
Pub date kind of feels like your birthday: the day itself is not that different, but there’s a special feeling to it, and people congratulate you a lot, and you finish it hopelessly drunk and trying to hitch-hike home.
I wrote Syrup (the novel) in 1997, and eight years later I get to go back and fix the parts I wish I’d done differently.
But the idea now is not to expose my naked raw drafts to the world, but to keep things under wraps until I have a script that’s cool and polished and gleaming with edgy goodness.
