There's no reason why you couldn't make a simple syrup flavored with vanilla as well. Make a cup of simple syrup and then steep with one or two vanilla beans as with the corn syrup; grinding them first would improve extraction but you might end up wanting to strain it after a few weeks of extraction. I would keep this in the refrigerator rather than on the shelf.
