Ingredients

    1 ½ lbs beets, topped and scrubbed
    2 cups apple cider vinegar
    ¼ cup red wine
    2 tbsp honey
    2 tsp raw sugar
    ½ tbsp Kosher salt
    ½ tsp cinnamon
    ½ tsp ground allspice
    ½ tsp cracked black peppercorns
    ¼ tsp turmeric

Directions

Preheat the oven to 375°F.
Wrap beets in foil and place on a cookie sheet.
Bake 30-45 minutes, until tender. Cool until you can handle them, then peel and cut into eighths.
In a large pot, combine vinegar, wine, honey, sugar, salt, cinnamon, allspice, pepper and turmeric. Bring to a boil.
Add beets and reduce heat to a simmer. Cook 5 minutes.
Ladle into jars (top off with more vinegar if needed) and seal. Can in a waterbath 30 minutes.
Let sit at least 2 days before enjoying - these get better as they age!
