how to make cherry jam without pectin - using chia seeds

In a saucepan, combine the cherries and the honey and then heat for about 5 minutes on med-high heat. use the back of a spoon or a pie crust combiner thing to mash them together. reduce the heat, and add in chai tea bags and let it steep for 10 minutes on simmer. then, add in the chia seeds, stir, and let it cool. you can not add in the tea, and it will still be delish, but then you wouldn't get the complete tongue twister that is this recipe!
