It's fine. There is a high concentration of sugar and vinegar in it,
nothing is going to grow. Now, when you dilute it and make it drinking
strength - that concentration goes down and it will go bad in a few days.

I made some sekanjabin and some syrup of lemons today for Pennsic, and when
I took them downstairs to the fridge, I discovered that we still have a lot
of
sekanjabin syrup from last year. It's perfectly clear and smells
completely normal, but my husband is worried that it might not be any good.
I seem to
remember that sugar syrups are pretty stable and don't really even need to
be stored in the fridge, but will last for a long time. Anybody have any
ideas how long this stuff will last?
I've had syrup of lemons develop cloudy, lumpy stuff in it and at that
point
I throw it out. But as I said, the sekanjabin from last year looks
completely normal.
