    Drain pickle juice into large pan. Add cider, water, cloves and dill. Bring liquid mixture to full boil; then reduce heat to simmer for 45 minutes to one hour (make sure you can open the windows, it's rather fragrant)
  • 2
    Place eggs, vegetable slices and pickle spears into large glass or hard plastic container (large ice cream pail works well)
  • 3
    Strain liquid mixture through a pasta collander and pour liquid over eggs and vegetables
  • 4
    Let sit for 24-36 hours at ))room temperature(( The eggs will be a very, very bright yellow and have a wonderful dill flavor the whole way through. The vegetables and pickles will have a dill flavor never before experienced -- and can be eaten separately or used as a complimentary garnish
