Securely place a lid on the jar. Shake the jar vigorously for about 30 seconds to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed and fully mixed with the juice. This prevents clumping.

Place the sealed jar in the refrigerator. Allow the chia seeds to absorb the liquid and swell, thickening the mixture into a jam-like consistency. This process takes at least 4 hours, but for best results and a firmer jam, refrigerate overnight.
