If you like really sweet pickled beets, my MIL's recipe calls for:
- Put equal parts water, white vinegar and sugar into a saucepan- amount depends on how many jars of beets you are canning. Add whole cloves, allspice, cinnamon stick to taste in a saucepan.
- Simmer on low while until spices infuse the liquid- at least 1/2 hour; remove spices.
- Meanwhile, boil, peel, slice beets; let them heat up in the liquid and then place in sterile jars or process as you desire.
