The stickiness is similarly stubborn as trying to clean up pine sap, where regular soap often will not clean it up.

One way to do this would be to create a fruit slurry in a blender, mix in an enzyme (Pectinex), then clarify. Your highest yield would come from a centrifuge, but you can also easily use a method called agar clarification, with a fairly good yield, to end up with a clear liquid. You can then sweeten this liquid if desired. You could also thicken it with ...
