    How long does that mix last? If it takes a while to use it all up, the water could be bad. Without a preservative, water is a great breeding ground for pathogens.

    Someone once told me she used a squirt of lemon juice with the water and olive oil to keep it fresh, although I am not sure if it is the lemon itself or the preservative in in it that does the trick?

    The acid in the lemon will help, but you'd need more than a squirt.

    I imagine everything would taste of lemons too. I would stick to just oil and use a bit less.
