No-Salt Refrigerator Pickles

Name: No-Salt Refrigerator Pickles
Ingredients: 2 cups baby cucumbers; 2 cloves fresh chopped garlic; 1/3 cup sugar, white or turbinado; optional dill weed; 1 cup apple cider vinegar; pinch red pepper flakes; optional chopped onion; optional allspice berries; optional bay leaves

This is my brother's recipe, best with freshly picked cukes from his garden. It couldn't be simpler and is salt-free. Also works with carrots, beets, okra, watermelon rind, etc. p.s. When I'm really lazy, I just throw the ingredients into the pickle juice left from store-bought pickles; this is a great way to use watermelon rinds.

Not bad, but very vinegary. Maybe with a little water added to dilute or more sugar.
