Bring water, vinegar, sugar, and salt to a boil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook until sugar dissolves, about 3 minutes. Turn off the heat and let cool for 2 minutes.
-
Meanwhile, divide carrots, radish, cucumbers, and jalapeños evenly between the two clean jars. Pour hot liquid over vegetables in the jars and let come to room temperature, about 30 minutes.

Recipe Tip
The longer you let the vegetables pickle, the better they get. They also get spicier, so only use one jalapeño if you're sensitive to heat.
