Sugar based
  If you want to make a liqueur, you have to sweeten it. The most easy and commonly used method is to replace some of the water by a sugar syrup. 

Basic sugar syrup (1 liter) 

1 kg Sugar
1 gram of Citric Acid
Water

Dissolve 1 kg of sugar in 0,45 liter of water. 
Bring the water/sugar mixture to a gently boil and add 1 gram of citric acid. 
Boil for another 10 more minutes and let it cool.

This will give you a sugar sirop which will not cristalize back in to solid sugar particules when you mix it with your home made alcohol.
