Add scent: A few drops of lemon, eucalyptus, or lavender essential oil in the spray bottle.

Extra disinfecting: Mix in 1 tsp of apple cider vinegar after it cools, then strain again.

Tough odors: Spray with a mix of baking soda and ½ tsp lemon juice on garbage bins or drains.

Mold prevention: Store spray in fridge for up to 2 weeks. Discard if it smells odd or changes color.
Reuse & Sustainability

Reuse the ginger bits: Toss them in your trash can as a deodorizer — refresh with baking soda and water.
-
Store fresh ginger: Wrap in dry paper towel, seal in an airtight bag, and refrigerate in crisper.
Or slice and freeze for longer storage.
