Submerge the cracked eggs in the dye solution until fully covered, refrigerate for at least 3 hours or overnight.
After dyeing, rinse the eggs under cold water mixed with a touch of vinegar and peel carefully.
Cut the eggs in half, scoop out the yolks, and mash them with mayonnaise, mustard, apple cider vinegar, salt, and pepper.
Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture into the egg whites, packing them generously.
Serve these stunning spooktacular deviled eggs chilled for the best flavor and appearance.
