Plant based Homemade Kitchen Cleaner

Ingredients:

2 cups distilled rice vinegar
Orange peel from 1 fresh orange
A handful of fresh thyme
1 fresh lemon grass
9-10 drops lavender essential oil

Method:

1.Fill a mason jar with thyme, orange peel and lemon grass.

2.Fill the jar with rice vinegar.

3.Screw on the lid (if using a metal lid, place a parchment paper on lid- vinegar eats metal!)

4.Give a thorough shake and let sit for 1-2 days.

5. Strain through a paper towel or cheesecloth-lined strainer.


Important: Keep this full strength or dilute with water (I recommend to use half strength)

Vinegar may etch porous surfaces like marble, some granites and soapstone countertops, so make sure to dilute with water and test first. A 50/50 blend is usually good.
