Great recipe. My DH saves the juice and adds hard boiled eggs into the brine for a night or two. Says it makes the best pickled eggs.

These are delicious with a very nice spicy-sweet taste. I was looking for a recipe similar to that of my mom's (sadly, she never wrote down any of her recipes) and this one is pretty close.

Top stuff. I have never pickled beets before, and this recipe was just absolutely perfect. It is so simple!! (except for peeling the beets) I added some lemons cut into small, but thick triangles, and they made for an excellent contrast when I put them in their jars, as well as adding a little extra zing. I also roasted the beets instead of boiling, I got a lot of advice that this is a better way to keep better colour and flavour. Thanks very much Tara, I will make this again and agian.

I used this recipe last year, and the product received much approval from friends to whom I gave jars, and the beets were greatly to my liking, too. I cooked my beets in the microwave oven; in this way, there is no need to worry about 'bleeding'. If the beets are of different sizes, I monitor the cooking and take out the smaller ones when they are yielding to the touch.

Very good recipe Tara. I used half cider vinegar and half white vinegar and I used ground cinnamon instead of cinnamon sticks. Excellent...very nice flavor. Thanks!

I was looking through some old canning recipes of mine and remembered by pickled beets. When I got on line I found them! I made this recipes for years and believe it or not my kids loved them when they were little. These beets are sweet and spicy.
