Choosing The Right Ingredients:
Each of the ingredients mentioned here is hand-picked and for good reasons. Cinnamon is the top choice because of its odour-removal and germ-killing properties. Honey offers antibacterial properties and makes the solution palatable.

Lemon juice can scare even the nastiest breath away. Baking soda can safely eradicate bad bacteria in your mouth.

Following the formula as mentioned, without making any changes and replacements can help you get the best results.

Selecting The Right Bottle:
The bottle you choose is important, as the cap should be tight-fitting, and the bottle should be convenient to carry. Glass and ceramic are not an ideal material if you want a portable mouthwash. Food-grade plastic bottles might be a viable solution.

• 4 teaspoons of fresh lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon of cinnamon powder
• 1 teaspoon of baking powder
• 2 teaspoons of honey
• 1 cup of warm water

Method:

• Locate a bottle of your choice that has a tight-fitting lid/cap.
• Add the cinnamon powder to the bottle, followed by the lemon juice and honey.
• Add the baking powder, followed by the warm water. Stir the solution well for about 20-30 seconds.
• Mix and use it everytime you want sweet-smelling breath and a bacteria-free mouth.
