This DIY Orange Peel Kitchen Spray smells amazing and more importantly, does a great job cleaning your kitchen and bathroom surfaces.
Over the last couple of years, I’ve really started to enjoy making and experimenting with homemade cleaning products and one that I’ve made over and over is my DIY orange peel kitchen spray. I just love the citrus smell – so much so that I sometimes even add a cheeky few drops of sweet orange essential oil to add even more orange scent. 😁
This spray is fab for all your kitchen and your bathroom cleaning but I tend to use mine more in the kitchen as the citrus scent just feels like a more kitcheny smell whereas I feel like a fresher smell like peppermint for bathroom cleaning. 😇
How to make your DIY Orange Peel Kitchen Spray
You need:
The peel from 3 or 4 oranges
200ml White Vinegar
150ml Water
{Optional} A spring of fresh rosemary for the final stage
- Pack your orange peel into a jar and cover it with white vinegar.
- Pop the lid on and leave for three or four weeks – giving it the odd shake here and there.
- At the end of the three or four weeks use a sieve or a coffee filter to strain the liquid into a spray bottle and top up with the water.
- If it’s a pretty glass bottle then you can pop in a bit of the orange peel and the rosemary if you’re using that too.
- I’m not sure how long this will last for but I use a batch every 4 weeks-ish so it lasts at least that long!
I spray this directly on to my kitchen counters and surfaces and use a microfibre cloth to wipe them down and it always leaves them smelling amazing and looking lovely and clean.
As always, I’d recommend doing a little patch test before using this on a surface you haven’t used it on before – not that I ever do as I’ve never had an issue but I would still recommend you do it. 😉
