This sweet icicle pickle recipe is and old fashioned recipe. It is definitely a lot of work, but I think if you are a pickle lover you will think it is worth every bit of it.
It really works best if you have a place where you can put the crocks aside and tend to them quickly on a daily basis as you will need to do.

I am not sure how often I would go through the process of making these sweet pickles, as they do take a LONG time.
There is not actually a lot of work each day for the most part, but they do take days to make.
If you have a garden though and your family loves pickles I think you will find it worth the effort for sure, as they taste great.
Suggestions:
- This recipe is delicious but it is a LOT of work. Personally, I would multiply the recipe several times and make a much larger batch than this. While you are at it, might as well make enough to make it worth your while.
- I like the tiny cucumbers pickled this way, but larger ones certainly work, especially if you have a garden and it is overrun with ripe cucumbers in the summer.
