By Lea-Anne O’Connor 


Prep: 3 minutes 

Total: 3 minutes 

Servings 500ml


Equipment

500ml spray bottle


Ingredients 

  • 20-25 drops lemon essential oil
  • 250ml Vinegar
  • Water


Instructions 

  • Add lemon oil to the spray bottle.
  • Fill halfway with vinegar and the rest of the way with water.
  • Secure sprayer top and shake well.


Notes

  • Shake well before each use.
  • To use, mist the cleaner onto any soiled surface, such as countertops, bathroom vanities, mirrors, windows, and floors, then wipe with a cloth or paper towel.
  • DO NOT use it on any natural stone, such as marble or granite, since the vinegar can weaken and penetrate the protective sealant.
  • For heavily soiled surfaces, soap scum, or hard water stains. Allow the mixture to sit for several minutes before wiping it with a clean microfiber towel.


Store in a glass bottle out of direct sunlight. This cleaner should last around 6 months.
