Ingredients
  

  • 3/4 cup water
  • 3/4 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 3 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1-2 medium red onions, thinly sliced (You want to fill the jar with sliced onions so you may need a second onion to do that)

Instructions
 

  • Pack The Jar: Pack the onions tightly into a pint-size mason jar.
  • Make The Brine: In a small saucepan, combine the water, apple cider vinegar, maple syrup, and salt. Heat the mixture over medium-high heat until it just begins to boil.
  • Cool The Brine: Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the brine cool for 2 minutes.
  • Add The Brine: Pour the brine over the onions in the jar, making sure the onions are fully submerged.
  • Cool The Onions: Let the onions cool to room temperature, then cover the jar and refrigerate it.
  • Refrigerate And Serve: Refrigerate the onions for at least a few hours before serving. For the best flavor, refrigerate them overnight.
