  • About
Syrups are mixtures of one or more sugars dissolved in water, usually with small amounts of other components including acids, colorants, flavorants, and thickeners. Although these other components are present in small amounts, they are extremely important because they provide the unique character of each syrup.
Most syrups contain about 20 percent water, but there are exceptions. For example, invert syrup typically contains from 23 to 29 percent water; maple syrup has about 33 percent water; and simple syrup often contains 50 percent water.
