why no pectin?
gelatin, perhaps?

>>5005855
dunno, then
what do you need it for?
Could do a thick syrup, or something like that, instead.

gonna put it on bread. that's all I need to do with it

mix it with some cream cheese

then, yeah, mix it into something, like >>5005904 suggested, or make a syrup out of it:
juice, strain, reduce with sugar on high heat until it thickens when you blow on some until it's cool enough to taste in a spoon. More sugar = sweeter syrup (derp) and less reduction needed. Half and half juice/sugar weight ratio is the highest sugar concentration I'd go.
alternately:
corn starch thickened sauce
add water enough water to corn starch so that you can stir it up evenly, this is a slurry
add approx 1 tbs slurry to 1 cup liquid (juice, or juice + water), cook until it is clear and stops getting thicker

edit
if using corn starch, be sure to whisk like a pro
don't want clumps
