Step 1

Pack a quart size glass jar tightly with leftover citrus peels, and then fill jar to the top with vinegar. Close and set in a sunny spot to infuse for at least two weeks.

Step 2

Strain the vinegar, discard the peels, and store the vinegar in a glass jar in a dark, cool spot.

Step 3

To make all-purpose cleaner, pour 1/2 cup of the vinegar into a spray bottle. Add in 2 cups water, 1 teaspoon castile soap, and 20 drops lemon essential oil, if using. Screw on lid and shake well.

Step 4

To use: shake the mixture well, and then spray onto surface and wipe clean with a damp cloth.
