In a large bowl, combine pickles, sugar, hot sauce, and red pepper flakes. Mix well.
Cover and let stand 3-4 hours, stirring occasionally. The mixture will produce its own brine.
Spoon pickle mixture into 2-3 pint-size jars. Add a clove of garlic to each. Cover and refrigerate for 7 days before serving.
Pickles can be kept in the refrigerator for up to one month.
