Think of the candy stripe achievement as a candy cane. It's a combination of reds and whites on the grid. Use this screenshot as your guide:

Do not include any other color on the grid.

Should note that you do not have to ignore other blocks entirely, as long as you at some point have just that pattern on the grid then you will get the achievement.

Does it have to be red and white, or can it be any colors?

red and white, and it has to start with red(since it is impossible to start with white), can be in any column though

There are YouTube videos that you can find that demonstrate how to earn the Candy Stripe achievement if you use the aforementioned site's engine by typing "Candy Stripe Achievement." Here's the link to one video of Audiosurf Overture that includes a narrator:

Hopefully this thread will now prove conclusive to any further intrepid surfers without candy canes.

Is your Steam set to Online and can you visit http://www.audio-surf.com in Internet Explorer? (Please note I mean IE not your preferred browser.)

Have you created a game account in-game? Though as far as I am aware it is unnecessary, but try it anyway.
