  • 1 tsp allspice
  • 1/2 tsp whole cloves
  • 6 inches cinnamon sticks

Directions:

  1. Sterilize jars.
  2. Wash well and cook beets just until tender. Let cool and coarsely dice into rough 1 inch cubes or slices.
  3. Mix sugar, water, vinegar salt and spices together and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for five minutes.
  4. Place a 1/2 inch piece of cinnamon stick in each jar.
  5. Fill with beets, leaving 1/2 inch space at the top. Poor hot brine over beets and seal.
  6. Let sit for at least two weeks.
