All of the above are perfectly good strategies. Double up on 1:1 when a recipe calls for rich, cut back on 2:1 if the recipe calls for straight simple, or use a 1.5:1 ratio and split the difference. It all works.

Your tastes also change over time too and you'll be tweaking the syrup amounts you add to different cocktails all the time go find the right balance that suits you.
