This blend yields approximately 1/3 cup, which is sufficient for multiple batches of pickles.
For a stronger heat, increase the amount of red pepper flakes. For a milder flavor, reduce or omit the red pepper flakes.
Crush the cinnamon sticks and whole spices slightly before mixing if you prefer a more intense flavor release in the brine.
