Just to note that this is _really easy_.

* Take garlic - I had six heads. Peel. Put into jar.
* Put about a tsp of honey into the jar too.
* Pour boiling vinegar into jar to fill up the gaps.

Mine went a disconcerting green colour:

but I understand this is quite usual if it's not dry when it goes in.
(I'd used water to measure the volume of vinegar I'd need.) It's still
really very nice...
