syrups
Thick sugary liquids
Syrups is the plural of syrup—thick, sweet liquids made by dissolving sugar in water or by reducing plant juices.
Maple syrup comes from tree sap, corn syrup from processed starch, simple syrup from sugar and water.
Medicinal syrups deliver drugs in palatable form: cough syrups.
The word also appears figuratively for anything cloyingly sweet: dripping with syrups of sentimentality.
