Here's a recipe that I am meaning to try once all my dishwasher liquid is gone: Ingredients:
1/2 cup liquid Castile soap
1/2 cup water
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
3 drops tea tree extract
1/4 cup white vinegar
Directions:
Combine water and liquid Castile soap. Stir and then add lemon juice, tea tree extract, and vinegar. Stir until blended evenly and store in a squeeze bottle.
Use 2 tablespoons per wash in a standard-size dishwasher.
Note: Do not substitute conventional liquid soap for the Castile soap unless it is a "low sudsing" soap. Regular soaps will produce too many suds and overflow the dishwasher.
This recipe for Automatic Dishwashing Soap serves/makes 1.25 cups.
I hope this helps and if you do try it before me, let me know how it goes!
