Pickled Blueberries

I have found this incredibly cute little blog called "Food in Jars" and this recipe is from there... I am very intrigued! This recipe makes two 12 ounce jars!

What you need:
2 pints fresh blueberries
1 cup apple cider vinegar
1 cup water
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 cinnamon stick, broken
2 star anise
6-8 black peppercorns
6-8 whole cloves
2 cardamom pods
2-3 thin slices fresh ginger

What you do:
Wash blueberries and pick over them to remove any mushy or bruised berries. In a small saucepan, combine vinegar, water, sugar and salt and bring to a boil. Place spices in the bottom of the jar. Fill jar with berries and top with hot pickling liquid, leaving 1/2 inch headspace. Gently tap jars to dislodge any trapped air bubbles. If liquid level drops, add more to return it to 1/2 inch. Apply lid and ring and let jar rest until cool. Place in refrigerator and let blueberries rest for at least 48 hours before serving.
