Looking for a Pickled Egg Recipe?!


Question: Looking for a Pickled Egg Recipe?
My grandmother used to always make them around Easter. She's been dead now for about 8 years and I haven't had any since. Recently I have really started craving them for some reason! I know she used Hard Boiled Eggs (obviously) and I know she used beets and Apple Cider Vinegar but I don't know what else she used and I'm just wondering if anyone else has any similar recipes? Thanks!
