So let's say, for example, cinnamon. A lot of water, a load of crushed cinnamon-sticks. Bring it to a boil and let it simmer till about half of the liquid has evaporated. An ideal time would be about 30-60 minutes. After that, strain it, measure it, and add an equal amount of sugar. Stir until dissolved. If you're using fresh fruits like passionfruit; simmer the water with passionfruit as noted above. Add more fresh passion fruit after dissolving the sugar and let it cool with it for about two hours. Strain again and bottle. I've found that this technique results a really intense syrup.
