Prepare the Vegetables
Wash and slice the cucumbers, carrots, and radishes into thin rounds or sticks as preferred. Peel the garlic cloves.

Make the Brine
In a medium saucepan, combine water, white vinegar, salt, sugar, black peppercorns, and red pepper flakes. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring until the salt and sugar dissolve.

Pack the Jars
In clean, sterilized jars, layer the sliced vegetables and garlic cloves. Pack them tightly but leave some space at the top.

Add the Brine
Pour the hot brine over the packed vegetables in the jars, ensuring that the vegetables are fully submerged. Leave about 1/2 inch of headspace at the top of each jar.

Add Dill
Add fresh dill sprigs to each jar, pressing down lightly to ensure they are submerged.

Seal and Cool
Seal the jars with lids and let them cool to room temperature. Once cooled, refrigerate the pickles.

Pickling Time
Allow the pickles to marinate in the fridge for at least 24 hours before serving. For best flavor, let them sit for 3-5 days.
