My nana taught me this hack to make cloudy glasses sparkle in 2 mins with 0 work. Here’s how it works

  • Soak the glasses for 2 minutes
    That’s it. No scrubbing. The vinegar will break down the mineral deposits on its own.
  • Rinse with warm water
    After 2 minutes, take the glasses out and rinse thoroughly.
  • Dry with a soft cloth (optional)
    For a streak-free finish, dry with a microfiber cloth or paper towel.

  • The Result?

    Crystal-clear glasses that look brand new — no elbow grease required.
    I was honestly shocked the first time I tried this. That dull film just disappeared, and my old glasses sparkled like they’d come straight from a store shelf.


    Bonus Tips

    • Really stubborn buildup? Soak for 10 minutes or warm the vinegar slightly before soaking.
    • Prevent future cloudiness: Add a splash of vinegar to your dishwasher’s rinse compartment to fight hard water deposits.
    • Don’t use vinegar on real crystal or antique glassware. It’s best for everyday drinking glasses made from standard glass.

    Why This Works

    White vinegar is acetic acid, which gently dissolves the alkaline mineral deposits left by hard water. It’s completely food-safe, non-toxic, and much gentler than chemical cleaners.


    Final Thoughts

    Nana always believed in doing things the smart way, not the hard way — and this is one of those hacks that proves her right every time.

    So next time you reach for a cloudy glass, remember: 2 minutes, no scrubbing, and a little vinegar is all it takes. Thanks, Nana. 💧✨
