As someone who works in the kitchen recipe testing all day long, there’s a lot of cleaning that happens in our house. I don’t love the idea of using harsh chemicals at home, so over the years I’ve tested all kinds of homemade cleaning sprays using a wide variety of ingredients. Everything from orange peels, castile soap, dish soap, lemon juice, salt, fresh herbs, hydrogen peroxide, rubbing alcohol, and countless DIY homemade cleaner recipes with different combinations. After all that experimenting, I finally nailed the perfect natural cleaner recipe… and it just so happens to be the simplest one! Just water, vinegar, and a few drops of essential oil. That’s it!
I know some people are hesitant to use cleaning products with vinegar because of the scent, but in this homemade cleaning spray, the essential oils do a great job masking it, and any remaining vinegar smell disappears quickly, leaving everything fresh and clean. We use this spray everywhere: kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms, living room, and even our home office. It truly performs better than anything else I’ve tried, including the store-bought cleaners!
This homemade all-purpose cleaner leaves my countertops sparkling without any residue. It cuts through grease, freshens the air, and I love that it’s safe, eco-friendly, and super cheap to make. Just grab a clean, empty spray bottle and shake up a batch! You can upcycle a bottle you already have or pick one up at the store. Tip: I prefer using plastic spray bottles as glass spray bottles are heavy and can shatter if dropped.
