Homemade Liquid Dish Soap

This is for Liquid Dish Soap made to hand wash your dishes and not for a dishwasher.  If you would like a Dishwasher Detergent Soap see Homemade Powder Dishwasher Detergent & Rinse Aid.

You don’t normal use zote soap so my apologize for having it in the picture. You do how ever used Castile, Ivory or homemade soap in the mix.

What you need to make you own Homemade Liquid Dish soap:

• 1 3/4 cup Boiling water
• 1 TBSP Borax
• 1 TBSP of grated bar soap (ivory, castile bar soap or homemade bar soap
• ½ cup of water
• optional: 15-20 drops of essential oil

How to make Liquid Dish Soap:

1. Boil water.
2. Mix borax and soap together in a medium bowl.
3. Pour Hot water in the mix.
4. Whisk until soap is completely melted.
5. Allow to cool for 6-8 hours, stirring occasionally.
6. Transfer into a squirt bottle.
7. Option: add essential oil.
