At work we use vinegar, pickling spice, whole garlic, and baby carrots. Sounds simple but it works.

My favorite is very simple: 1 Can of beets (already pickled or not), 1/2 c vinegar, 1/2 c sugar, 1/2 c of water.... Yum! I ususall buy pickled beets just to give it a flavor boost ... but I have done it the other and it works. If you fancy the flavor you can add a cinnamon stick but I don't like it that way.
