Prepare the Vegetables
Wash and slice cucumbers, carrots, and red onions into bite-sized pieces. Peel the garlic cloves.

Make the Pickling Brine
In a saucepan, combine apple cider vinegar, water, sugar, salt, and black peppercorns. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring until the sugar and salt dissolve.

Pack the Jars
In clean, sterilized jars, layer the sliced vegetables and garlic. Add dill sprigs on top.

Add the Brine
Pour the hot pickling brine over the packed vegetables in the jars, ensuring they are fully submerged. Leave about half an inch at the top.

Seal and Cool
Wipe the rims of the jars with a clean cloth, seal with lids, and allow to cool to room temperature.

Refrigerate
Once cooled, refrigerate the jars. Let the pickles sit for at least 24 hours before consuming for the best flavor.
