syrup?

Does anybody know how to make syrup? Like fruity syrup (strawberry, blueberry). I haven't really looked around yet, thought I'd ask first.. Thanks :)

I don't know how to make syrup. I hope someone posts how to soon, that would be yummy. I have a couple of recipes I will post. Will you send me an invite? Is that what I'm suppose to do to post? Thanks AMANDA!!

This is mom hughes.
Just make it like regular syrup.
1 cup water to 2 cups sugar bring to a boil and add whatever. 1 tsp. maple,almond,or rootbeer flavors. at this point you could add one cup of any fruit you like instead of the flavoring(if you like it chunky leave it whole or crush it for a smoother consitency.)
Note: if you like a thicker syrup like you buy in the store add 1 cup of corn syrup in place of 1 cup of sugar and boil for a 2-5 mins before adding flavorings.
**if you didn't want to make the syrup we just use freezer jam; it melts on the hot pancake and is great
