Syrups and Espresso

Don't get me wrong, syrups are for the cosmetic connoisseur but when I have to, I like to have my espresso pulled straight into the syrup of choice instead of pouring the espresso from the shot cups and then into the cup with the syrup, but I find that I lose my crema. I figure, having the espresso hitting the syrup at first gives the syrup a better way (chance) to mix with the espresso since it's at a higher temp. My large cups (solo t16) don't fit under my pf, and my glass shots 'fraid won't hold too much. I hate using metal because it's an excellent conductor....
