Maybe you want the cocktail recipe printed on the label. Simple syrup is one of the easiest things in the world to make and making your own is cost-effective—the ingredients cost only about 25 ...
The ratio of sugar to water is 1:1 by volume for normal simple syrup, but can get up to 2:1 for rich simple syrup. [6] For pure sucrose the saturation limit is about 5:1 (500 grams (18 oz) sucrose to 100 millilitres (3.5 imp fl oz; 3.4 US fl oz) water).
I recently made a syrup with 3 cups of sugar and 3 cups of water that yielded just over 4 cups of syrup. BeboGuitar 18:16, 4 January 2007 (UTC) "The precise USP (United States Pharmacopia) receipe for simple syrup is 850 grams of sucrose to 450 ml water, yielding 1 liter (67.6 fl oz) of syrup."
For example, in a recipe that calls for 10 pounds of flour and 5 pounds of water, the corresponding baker's percentages are 100% for the flour and 50% for the water. Because these percentages are stated with respect to the weight of flour rather than with respect to the weight of all ingredients, the sum of these percentages always exceeds 100%.

1 mL of water weighs 1 gram so a recipe calling for 300 mL (≈ 1 ⁄ 2 Imperial Pint) of water can simply be substituted with 300 g (≈ 10 oz.) of water. 1 fluid ounce of water weighs approximately 1 ounce so a recipe calling for a UK pint (20 fl oz) of water can be substituted with 20 oz of water.
Recipe is from Food Flavorings: Composition, Manufacture and Use. Makes 1 US gallon (3.8 L; 0.83 imp gal) of syrup. Yield (used to flavor carbonated water at 1 US fl oz (30 ml) per bottle): 128 bottles, 6.5 US fl oz (190 ml). [31] Mix 5 lb (2.3 kg) of sugar with just enough water to dissolve the sugar fully.
A sugar substitute may also be used. [1] Flavored syrups may be used or mixed with carbonated water, coffee, pancakes, waffles, tea, cake, ice cream, and other foods. There are hundreds of flavors ranging from cherry and peach to vanilla to malt, hazelnut, coconut, almond, gingerbread, chocolate, peppermint, rootbeer, and even toasted marshmallow.
