You don’t need fancy chemicals. Grab white vinegar, a soft brush, and a bucket. Vinegar is the MVP here. It kills germs, cuts grime, and won’t poison you.
Avoid bleach. It’s too harsh, and you’ll taste it for a week. Nobody wants lemon-fresh plastic with their afternoon tea. Stick with the sour stuff.
You’ll also need a long, flexible bottle brush. That narrow spout is a cave of mystery. Enter the brush, Indiana Jones style.
