1 #2 can beets
1 c. vinegar
1/2 c.sugar
1 tsp. salt
4 cloves
2" stick cinnamon

Drain and measure juice from beets. Add enough water to make one cup. To this juice, add the vinegar, sugar, salt and spices. Pour hot liquid over beets. Let stand 24 hours. RED BEET EGGS: After beets have been pickled, remove them and replace with hard cooked eggs. Let stand in juice 8 to 12 hours so that flavor penetrates whole eggs.
