Chrin - Horseradish Beet Sauce

I just whipped up a large bowl of Chrin (Ch = a guttal K sound) which is a traditional accompaniment to smoked meats during the Pascha meal. You will find this dish all over Central Europe. The recipe is simple and hot.

1 can beets (NOT pickled)
1 jar prepared horseradish
1 tablespoon honey
1 lemon

Zest the lemon and squeeze the juice. Drain the beets. Combine everything in a blender. Blend. Enjoy.
