Vibrant-colored pickled eggs make a fun party snack and are super easy to make with just a few natural ingredients to enhance the color as well as the flavor of the eggs. This recipe makes enough for half a dozen of one color of pickled eggs. Choose one or make a few batches of different colors to feed a crowd!
