Drain the brine from the dill pickles and discard the liquid. Rinse the pickles with cool water to remove excess salt.
Slice the pickles into rings approximately 1/4 inch thick. Set aside.
In a large non-reactive pot, combine the granulated sugar, white vinegar, water, and red food coloring. Stir well to dissolve the sugar completely.
Add the cinnamon sticks and red hot cinnamon candies to the pot. Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the candies have melted and the mixture begins to simmer.
Remove the pot from heat and add the sliced pickles to the hot liquid. Stir gently to coat all the slices with the syrup.
Allow the pickles to sit in the syrup for 24 hours at room temperature, stirring occasionally to ensure even coating.
After 24 hours, transfer the pickles and syrup into sterilized jars, distributing the cinnamon sticks evenly among the jars.
Seal the jars tightly and refrigerate. Let the pickles cure for at least 7 days before serving to allow the flavors to fully develop.
Enjoy these sweet and spicy cinnamon ring pickles as a snack, garnish, or on a charcuterie board!
