I really have trouble with the smell of white vinegar.. .
If you're like me, then you'll love this trick!
Here's a simple trick to make your white vinegar smell good.
Goodbye to the old pickle smell that stings the nose :-)
And don't worry!
This recipe is easy to make, natural and inexpensive. Watch:
- white vinegar
- citrus fruits:lemon, orange, and lime
- glass jars with tight-fitting lids
- thrifty
- funnel
- spray bottle
- labels (optional)
1. Wash the fruits and dry them.
2. With a vegetable peeler, remove the zest from the fruit. Take care to remove only the first shiny layer and not the white part inside the bark.
3. Fill the glass jars halfway with the citrus peels.
4. Using a funnel, carefully pour the white vinegar into the jar. Fill the jar almost to the top.
5. Leave to macerate in a cool, dark place for one to two weeks. This will allow the natural essential oils from the citrus peels to infuse into the vinegar.
6. Once the mixture is ready, strain the citrus peels with a funnel. Discard citrus peels or better recycle them with our tips here.
7. Pour the Citrus White Vinegar into a spray bottle or a closed bottle depending on what you want to use it for.
And There you go ! Now your white vinegar is fragrant and smells like citrus fruits :-)
No more bad smells that sting the nose after each use in the house!
You will see, this time, your vinegar will have a pleasant smell and you will definitely not be able to do without it.
For this recipe, I used 3 citrus fruits:lemon, orange and lime, but you can use only one at a time or make other combinations.
You can also use other citrus fruits such as citron, bergamot or mandarin...
If possible, consider using organic fruit rather than pesticide-treated fruit.
You can also add a small label on the jar to remember the scent.
