ZWT6: Made these for my husband - he loved them! I am not a beet fan so he happily ate them all!! I will definitely be making this again as we get fresh beets from our farmer's market!

Nice, but a little sweet and a little too tangy. I did let it sit for the full 12 hours. I prefer mine with more spice. . .like cinnamon and cloves. Glad I made them though! Thanks for sharing. Made for Team SSaSSy for ZWT6.
