I have made these a number of times now and my neighbor absolutely loves the juice! She keeps it and puts onions in them for days and eats them.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1/4 cup white wine vinegar
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon pickling spice (you can make your own)
  • 1 teaspoon celery seed

How To Make refridgerator pickles

  • Step 1
    Bring to a quick boil stirring from time to time. Lower heat to simmer for 4 minutes. Remove and allow to cool for awhile. (Everything but the cucumber onions and garlic)
  • Step 2
    Layer a jar with the cucumbers, onions and garlic. Get it all in there good. SLOWLY pour the well cooled mixture into a Bell Jar or similar and fill it up to the neck. Cap it, put it in the fridge and let it chill for 3 DAYS but I like more a week or so. Can be kept up to 3 or more months. The juice is fabulous.
