Ingredients

  • 1 (15 ounce) can red beets

  • ¼ cup brown sugar

  • ½ cup white vinegar

  • ½ cup cold water

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • 4 whole cloves

  • 1 small cinnamon stick

  • 6 hard-cooked eggs

Directions

  1. Pour the beet juice into a medium-size pot. Stir in the brown sugar, vinegar, water, salt, cloves, and the cinnamon stick. Place the pot over a medium heat for 8 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  2. Place the beets into the liquid mixture and let it cook for an additional 2 minutes to allow the beets to heat.

  3. Place the hard cooked eggs (with the shells removed) in a container with a tight-fitting lid. Pour the liquid and beets into the container with the eggs. Store the container in the refrigerator for approximately 5 days before eating.
