Not just food, during the holidays it is good glass bottles, especially wine ones, that are consumed the most!

Lemon juice
If you don’t have Marseille soap on hand, you can simply use lemon juice !
The fantastic citrus in question is excellent for cleaning and polishing all surfaces , including glass, making it very suitable in the case of wine bottles for reuse.
Simply fill the bottom of the bottle with 1 glass of lemon juice and shake vigorously, then always add boiling water and leave it there for a while until the wine is released.
