Step by Step Method
Step 1
Pour the beet juice from the can into a bowl; add in enough water to measure 2 cups then transfer to a saucepan.
Step 2
To the saucepan add in 2 cups vinegar, peppercorns, sugar, salt, pickling spices, sliced garlic cloves and onion slices; bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer for about 3 minutes stirring for the first few minutes until no sugar/salt granules remain; remove and cool to room temperature (about 2 hours).
Step 3
Place the peeled hard-boiled eggs and beet slices in a large clean glass jar/container.
Step 4
Pour the brine over, then place in the refrigerator until completely cold then cover with a lid. Allow to chill for at lest 4 or more days (the longer the better!).
