thumbnail_image003 (1)

This recipe is courtesy of Dr. Eric Z and Sabrina Z from Natural Living Family!

INGREDIENTS:

·         3/4 Cup Arm & Hammer Super Washing Soda Detergent Booster & Household Cleaner

·         3/4 Cup OxiClean Laundry Baby Stain Soaker

·         1/2 bar Dr. Bronner’s Unscented Soap

·         3 glass gallon containers (5-gallon heavy duty plastic buckets work as well for mixing)

·         Bottle of any citrus essential oil

INSTRUCTIONS

(Stove Top)

·         Grate the ½ bar of soap over LARGE pot on low heat – you can split in two batches if you don’t have a large enough pot.

·         Add 5 cups of water.

·         Stir soap and water until dissolved on medium-high.

·         Add OxiClean and Washing Soda in mixture until dissolved

·         Remove from heat and let cool for a few minutes.

(In Glass Jars)

1.      Pour 4 cups hot water into each of the 3 jars.

2.      Evenly distribute the soap mixture and 40 drops of your favorite citrus oil to each jar.

3.      Stir, then add enough cool water to fill each bucket.

4.      Let each bucket thicken over night.

5.      And don’t forget to stir before each use because the detergent may get lumpy or gelatinize.

6.      Easy peesy!

Quick Note: Depending on whether you have a high-efficiency washer or not, you should use between ¼ – ½ cup scoop per load.
