For a deeper color and flavor, use fresh beets that have been roasted and sliced. Be sure to reserve the beet juice for the pickling liquid!
Feel free to experiment with other spices, such as cloves, peppercorns, or a bay leaf, to customize the flavor profile to your liking.
The pickled eggs will keep in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. The longer they sit, the more intense the flavor will become.
