Natural Homemade Grout Cleaner

Share the Homestead

I love having white tile counter tops. But I have to admit that just a little bit of ignoring that white grout can create a really dirty looking kitchen. This homemade grout cleaner has proven to be just what I needed to get my counters looking shiny and clean again!

I have used all sorts of cleaners in the past, including bleach, store bought grout whiteners, whatever sounded like it would work. I realized that something that was “oxy” or sort of foaming would work really well, but I wanted to avoid chemicals. After looking for ideas on line, I came up with this homemade, natural grout cleaner that is just what I was looking for.

This Natural Grout Cleaner bubbles up when mixing it, ready to send it’s oxy-cleaning into the dirtiest spots. I will admit, it does require a little elbow-grease (but not too much!). I use a vegetable brush to very lightly scrub across each section of grout ensuring a beautiful result. If you love your grout, but hate using chemicals to clean it, try this Natural Homemade Grout Cleaner!

Natural Homemade Grout Cleaner

6 oz. water

1/4 cup vinegar

1/3 cup lemon juice

1/2 cup baking soda

Mix slowly and well (I use one of my go-to jars- a 1/2 gallon mason jar).

Be careful, it will foam over so do this in your sink!

Pour into an empty spray bottle.

Spray on your grout and let it sit a few minutes.

Lightly scrub the grout with a brush (I use a vegetable brush)

to remove all stains and debris.

Wipe down your counter and polish up the tile with a clean cloth (micro-fiber works great).
