I was going to suggest using an Orange SF syrup but sounds like you figured it out.

Yep! Syrup instructions always give you the quantities for thick, medium and thin syrups and they always include real sugar and boiling ... artificial sweeteners won't thicken, they'll just sweeten. Maybe one of our kitchen experts can chime in here with an artificial sweetener that WILL thicken, or maybe you need to add a wee tad of Thick'nThin/not Sugar?
