Refrigerator Pickled Beets 😍

2. Prepare the Pickling Brine:

1. In a medium saucepan, combine the white vinegar, water, sugar, and salt.
2. If you like, add the cinnamon stick, cloves, and bay leaf to the mixture for added flavor.
3. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring until the sugar and salt are fully dissolved.
4. Once boiling, reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 5 minutes.

3. Pickling the Beets:

1. In a clean glass jar or container, place the sliced beets.
2. If using onions, add them to the jar, layering them with the beets.
3. Pour the hot pickling brine over the beets and onions, making sure they are fully submerged.
4. Let the jar cool to room temperature.
5. Once cooled, seal the jar with a lid and refrigerate.

4. Let Them Pickle:

• Allow the beets to pickle in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours before serving. The longer they sit, the more flavorful they will become.

Serving Suggestions:

• These refrigerator-pickled beets are perfect as a side dish, salad topping, or even as a snack on their own. They add a bright, tangy flavor to any meal and are a beautiful addition to your table with their vibrant color.
