Easy Scented Cleaner

Easy Scented Cleaner



Supplies
White Vinegar
Vodka
1 or 2 Oranges (or 2-3 lemons or any citrus you like)
1 Cinnamon Stick
32 ounce mason jar
Plastic  mason jar cap
32 ounce Clean spray jar.

Directions
Fill a 32 ounce mason jar with a sliced orange (or two if you want) and a cinnamon stick and fill with white vinegar.
Place a plastic lid on it and label it.
Let macerate (sit out of the sun) for 4 weeks (or until you like the scent)
Strain the mixture through a cloth (to keep debris out of it)
Fill the sprayer with the mixture and add about ½ to ¾ cup of vodka (I use 100 proof personally but whatever you have is fine) and I never measure so use your judgment on the amount here.  I didn’t make my sprayer full to the top.

Use:
I use this for windows, countertops, whatever you like. And you can alter this to what you like, apples, lime, lemon, vanilla, etc.  Have fun with it!


I do not use essential oils as I am scent sensitive so this for me is scented enough, but you could add a few drops if you wanted to. J

There are several of these floating around, but I don't think any of them call for vodka (or not that I have seen), I use vodka to cut down on  the streaking that can occur with just vinegar.
