To avoid fridge crowding and erratic use, I tend to make most syrups a la minute. I keep a supply of rich cane simple (2:1) in the fridge, which is very stable. Then it's just a matter of quick dilutions (simple), additions (passion fruit puree), or rapid infusions (vanilla, cinnamon, falernum). The ISI whipper turns out a fantastic cinnamon,ginger, or vanilla syrup in less than two minutes. Falernum takes about 15 minutes because of zesting the limes, but that's still short-notice-friendly. And Morgenthaler's grenadine tastes great and is just a few magic microwave moments away.
