Tip # 76 From Mrs. Sunny

"Make homemade dishwasher detergent"
So I just finished my store bought dishwasher detergent and decided to look up recipes on making it homemade.
Here it is and I happened to have Borax and Washing Soda from the homemade laundry detergent I make:
1/2 Cup Borax
1/2 Cup Washing Soda (not baking soda)
1/4 Cup Kosher salt
2 packets lemonade mix (no sugar added)...some recipes call for 4 packets, but 2 packets worked just fine for me.
Just mix them all together in a lidded container and use 1 T. per dishwasher load! My dishes came out spotless! Enjoy!
Also, if you use a rinse aid, just put a little vinegar in the rinse aid section instead!
