ORANGE FLAVORED PICKLE STRIPS 
7 lbs. cucumber strips
3 qts. vinegar
5 lbs. sugar
2 tsp. salt
1 c. orange juice
Spice bag: 4 tbsp. pickling spice

Soak strips 24 hours in 2 gallons water plus 2 cups pickling lime. Rinse several times.

Heat all ingredients until sugar is melted. Pour over strips. Bring to boil and simmer 25 minutes. Pack in jars and seal.

I taste the liquid after about 5 minutes. Sometimes I add more orange juice or sugar.

Orange Flavored Pickle Strips

 Loretta says:
I made your orange flavored pickle strips. The vinegar taste was too strong for my taste. Could I substitute less vinegar and add water or perhaps use a portion of rice vinegar to make the 3 quarts. Also the orange flavor almost non-existent, I put one & one-half cups oj any suggestions?
