I love collecting stuff out on walks and there are loads or Raspberries around, not ready yet but I may try that recipe...I say may as I never get around to do fancy stuff these days due to the nature of guests being around!!

Sugar syrup?

Sure does as does whisky - raspberry whisky is fab! and I don't like whisky! Raspberry Vodka is wonderful stuff.  But you can use other berries too.  I prefer vodka and have made liqueur with rasps, strawbs, brambles (Blackberries to sassenachs lol)
