Steam Clean

I bought a new steam mop and I really like how much dirt it gets up.  It came with a 'free' bottle of Eucalyptus Mint Fragrance distilled water which was good for two tank fills.  If I wanted to purchase more I could buy a 32 oz bottle for $ 15.00 plus $ 6.00 shipping.  So I decided to brew up some of my own scented cleaner.

I put the peels of two oranges into a mason jar and covered with white vinegar.  Then let it set for two weeks.  Then I refill the container that came with the mop with half scented vinegar and half water.  Cost is $ 0.186 for a final 32 ounces, I like that price better!

I did not calculate the cost of the orange peel in this as the peel was 'left over' from a snack and would have been put in the compost pile instead. 

The instructions recommend distilled water or I'll have to replace the mop filter system sooner, which costs $ 13.00 and $ 4.00 shipping. 

So now do I want to buy distilled water or make some . . .
