    Wash beets, remove root and stems, place in large pot, pour water over to cover and cook til tender, about 15 minutes. Drain, remove skin and cut beets into chunks. Place beets in clean canning jars. Place all other ingredients in a large pot and bring to boil, simmer 5 minutes. Pour hot liquid over beets until covered and within 1/4 inch of jar top.
