What do I do with the peach syrup?

I just make two kick-ass peach pies for Ethical Culture. But I have maybe four cups of syrup that came with the canned peaches.

Is it safe to throw down the kitchen sink (with hot water running) or should I chuck it with the rest of the garbage?

It has high fructose corn syrup. I don't want to ingest it.

don't throw it out... drink it, make smoothie, use it as liquid in bread/cake/etc... boil it down and use as syrup on pancakes, make oatmeal with it, put it in garden, etc... I hate throwing stuff out

The universe will accept it. You will make the yeasties very happy, and the bacteria will eat the yeasties and the circle of life will continue.

I was envisioning the poster pouring peach syrup down the drain and being met with much love and appreciation on the microbial level.

boil it down and use it as a glaze, mix with champagne, on pancakes

or dump it, it is just sugar and water with a bit of juice/flavor
