I can remember Momma taking her pickled beet juice and dying our Easter eggs. I even remember the vinegar smell. I always thought they were the prettiest shade of burgunday. What was in your basket?
 
Ingredients
2 quarts beets boiled and cubed 2 cups sugar
1 tbsp salt 3 small onions or 1 large
2 tbsp pickling spice  
 
Directions
Peel beets and boil for 30 to 40 minutes or until tender or cook and then peel the beets. Set aside. In a medium saucepan, combine and boil the vinegar, sugar salt, and spices. (The pickling spice may be put in a cheese cloth for easier removal, although Momma always left the pickling spices in the jar.) Add the beets and onions and bring to another boil. Pack in jars.
