If you are referring to TJ Blackburn syrup, I would advise against it. Here is what I found as the ingredients:

Corn Syrup, High Fructose Corn Syrup, Cane Syrup, Water, Caramel Coloring, Sodium Benzoate, And Sorbic Acid (Added As A Preservative Only)
 
Buy dextrose or make your own simple sugar. 1 cup boiling water to every 2 cups sugar.
 
Heat water but do not boil the water, it drives out the O2.
 
Yes. Boil the water first. Remove from stove and stir in your sugar. You don't want to drive out the co2 and end up caramelizing the mixture.
