My 2nd pickled egg batch turned out so much better

My first batch of pickled eggs and beets was insanely overpowered by using ACV and following a recipe with no water for dilution. My whole apartment smelled like ACV for a few days and had to leave the windows open.

I made a few changes for my 2nd try. I replaced the SCV with regular white pickling vinegar. Added the one cup of water dilution with the two cans of beets. Added 3/4 cup of honey because I don't have sugar and figured it would be a bit healthier. Added the seasonings. And the picture above are after the 24 hour waiting period. They came out great. Though I think they were still on the sweet side than I'd like. I prefer more tangy than sweet, so I may just add a few tablespoons of honey next time. I eat them along with the beets and salt and pepper. It was dee-lish.
