This syrup tastes so good served with a smoked turkey. It is very sweet which offsets the strong smoke flavor of the turkey beautifully. It is very simple to make, and can very easily be made up ahead of time. I have made it several times, and it is now my "trade marked" item that I am always asked to prepare.11/23/04
