I’m sure that by now, you have realized how much I love vinegar. It’s the wonder-solution that can tackle cleaning, laundry and even disinfecting jobs. But next to vinegar, I love cola for solving some difficult cleaning challenges.
Here are my top 3 cola fixes:
- Clogged sink? Pour a few cans of cola down the drain and it may just clear up
- Burnt on mess in the bottom of your pots? Cover the bottom of the pot in cola and put the pot back on the burner. Let it boil for 3-4 minutes and it should clean up quickly and easily.
- Grease or oil stains on clothing? Soak the garment in cola overnight and then wash as usual. You may want to throw some baking soda in the wash to get rid of any oily smell.
No one brand of cola works better than any others, so buy whatever brand is on sale, and keep a few cans away from the cola-drinking members of your family. Now you can feel confident tackling a lot of difficult cleaning challenges with items from your own pantry.

wow, awesome tips, thank you so much, I just burnt something really nasty into my nice pot and have tried almost everything to get it out….
One tip, for dirty children clothes, most stains get out easy and cheap with Wal-Mart Oxyclean spray bottle. Is cheap and helps.
Hard stains, let sitt overnight and then wash in cold water 🙂

These are great suggestions but it will make me think twice before I actually drink a cola again!
