Don’t Throw Away the Lemon Peel: Put It in a Plastic Bottle for an Effective DIY Solution

After you’ve gathered enough lemon peels, put them inside the plastic container. Tighten them up a little so they fit better.

Fill the bottle with white vinegar for a cleaning solution or use a clear alcohol like vodka for a natural extract. Choose your preferred method of addition. The oils and essence may be successfully extracted from the peels by using either liquid.

Keep in a cold, dark spot for two to four weeks after sealing the bottle. The infusion’s strength is directly proportional to the amount of time it sits.

After the infusion time is up, transfer the liquid to a new container and filter it before using. Toss the peels aside.

What to Do With Lemon Peel Infusion:
Cleaning Product: Cleaning windows, mirrors, and other surfaces with the vinegar-based infusion is an all-natural option. It removes oil and leaves a pleasant aroma behind.

To get the taste of lemon without the acidity, try using an alcohol-based infusion in your cooking or baking.

Put the infusion in a spray bottle and use it as an all-natural air freshener to banish smells and revitalize spaces.

How to Get the Most Out of It:
Periodically Shake: To improve the infusion process, shake the container every so often to combine the peels with the liquid.

Placing the container in direct sunlight while the infusion is underway might enhance the extraction and hasten the procedure.

Always leave the date and contents on the bottle’s label for future reference and safety.

Not only does this easy do-it-yourself technique repurpose lemon peels, but it also offers a multipurpose, efficient solution that can be applied all throughout the house. It’s a cheap and simple method to generate more lemonade, which helps keep the home healthy and reduces waste.
