Pour the vinegar, water, sugar and spices into a medium-sized sauce pan and bring to a boil.
While the vinegar mixture heats, peel and cut three large carrots into match sticks.
Place the carrots into a large, 32-ounce glass container with lid. Pour the hot vinegar over the carrots, seal and let the carrots marinate on the counter for two hours.
Store the carrots in the refrigerator and eat at you leisure. The carrots will keep for up to three months. Enjoy!
