Start by sterilizing a quart-sized mason jar with its lid by boiling them in water for 10 minutes. Remove and let air-dry completely.
In a medium saucepan, combine white vinegar, water, erythritol, and salt over medium-high heat. Stir until the erythritol and salt dissolve completely. Let the mixture come to a boil, then remove from heat.
Add mustard seeds, peppercorns, bay leaf, and garlic slices into the sterilized jar.
Begin layering the jar with cauliflower florets, green beans, carrot sticks, and red bell pepper slices, alternating the layers with fresh dill sprigs until all vegetables are packed tightly.
Carefully pour the hot vinegar brine over the vegetables in the jar, leaving about 1/2 inch of headspace at the top. Tap the jar gently on the counter to release any air bubbles and add more brine if necessary.
Seal the jar tightly with the lid and let it cool to room temperature. Once cooled, refrigerate the jar for at least 24 hours to allow the flavors to meld. For best results, wait 48 hours before enjoying.
Serve cold as a low-carb snack or side dish. Keep refrigerated and consume within 3 weeks for optimal freshness and taste.
