What is Natural Lemon Vinegar Cleaner? Well, let me tell you - it's like a superhero for your surfaces, but instead of a fancy cape, it's got a naturally infused vinegar cleaner that combines lemon scraps and vinegar. Once you put them together and let them infuse for a couple of weeks, you'll be ready to use it on multiple surfaces in your home. The best part? It's natural, eco-friendly, and budget-friendly - talk about a triple threat! Using Natural Lemon Vinegar Cleaner is a breeze. All Purpose Cleaner: It's like a Swiss Army knife - suitable for countertops, sinks, and floors. Just remember, it's not a fan of stone countertops like granite or marble, and it can dull the finish on hardwood floors, so do a patch test first. Glass Cleaner: It's like a streak-free magic trick - takes the streak out of windows and mirrors, and shines them right up! Bathroom Cleaner: It's like a soap scum ninja - tackles soap scum and hard water stains in your sinks, showers, and tubs. Deodorizer: It's like a breath of fresh air - cleaning with lemon and vinegar will help neutralize lingering odors. Benefits of Natural Lemon Vinegar Cleaner? It's a long list, but here are the highlights: Non-Toxic: Safe to use around children and pets - no need to worry about those pesky harsh chemicals. Eco-friendly: Reduces the need for commercial chemical cleaners - you can feel good about being green. Cost-effective: After all, it utilizes just two ingredients, and one of them is literal scraps that you would have thrown away anyway - talk about reducing waste! EQUIPMENT: 1 Glass jar with lid - simple, yet effective. INGREDIENTS:
2 Lemon Peels/Scraps - because who doesn't love a good lemon?
2 Cups Distilled White Vinegar - the magic that makes it all happen. INSTRUCTIONS:
Place the lemon peels/scraps into a clean glass jar - don't worry if it gets a little messy.
Pour the vinegar over the scraps until they are fully submerged, and then seal the jar with the lid - voila! Store in a cool location away from direct sunlight - no sunbathing for this cleaner. After about two weeks, strain the mixture by removing the lemon scraps - the waiting game is over! Pour the lemon infused vinegar into a spray bottle and dilute it with a 1:1 ratio of water to cleaner - time to get spraying!
NOTES: Once you strain the solution, you can either leave it as a concentrated liquid and dilute it as needed, or you can dilute it all at once - the choice is yours! For deeper cleans or to remove tough stains, use it undiluted - bring on the tough stuff! Vinegar can damage natural stone surfaces like marble and granite - so, be careful! It can also dull the finish of hardwood floors - don't say I didn't warn you! Always test the cleaner on a small, inconspicuous area first to ensure it doesn't damage the surface - better safe than sorry! You can substitute the lemon scraps in this recipe for other citrus such as orange, grapefruit, lime, etc. - get creative!
