If your syrup truly made it to syrup, and your canning was done correctly, the shelf life is years and the syrup should be refrigerated and consumed within a year once it is opened. Playing it safe would be freezing it until you open it and then refrigerating it and consuming it within a matter of weeks. If, when you freeze it, it turns solid, it wasn't finished all the way to syrup. Welcome to the site.
