It's quite safe for you to drink your mixture, however it will have no effect whatsoever on your UTI, even Cranberry juice only relieves SOME of the symptoms, there is only ONE WAY to kill the harmful and potentially fatal bacteria that cause UTIs and that's to use antibiotics, there are NO natural ways to cure UTIs.

You need antibiotics to deal with a urinary tract infection. Cranberry *may* help prevent UTI, but will not treat it. Lemon juice and baking soda is great for kids experiments, cleaning the kitchen and maybe heartburn, but not UTIs.

It's safe, but it won't treat your UTI.

Dilute in glass of water. Better to take cran pills, or eat blueberry.
