Mix the Solution: In a large bowl or jug, combine water, baking soda, lemon juice, and vinegar. Stir until the baking soda dissolves completely.
Transfer to Spray Bottle: Carefully pour the solution into a spray bottle for easy application.
Apply to Grout: Spray generously onto tile grout lines. Let sit for 2–3 minutes to loosen dirt and grime.
Scrub: Use a stiff-bristled brush or an old toothbrush to scrub the grout lines thoroughly.
Rinse and Wipe: Wipe clean with a damp cloth or mop, then rinse with clean water if needed.

Serving and Storage Tips

Storage: Store any leftover solution in the spray bottle for up to one week. Shake well before each use.
Tip: Use gloves to protect your hands, especially if you have sensitive skin.

Variants

Essential Oil Add-On: Add 5–10 drops of tea tree, eucalyptus, or lavender essential oil for a pleasant scent and extra antibacterial properties.
Stronger Mix for Tough Grime: Reduce water to 5 cups for a more concentrated cleaning solution.
Toothpaste Booster: For extra scrubbing power, apply whitening toothpaste directly to problem spots and scrub before spraying the mix.
