What type of vinegar is used to make ermilk?

Right now I only have white distilled vinegar is that okay? Also what is the correct way to make ermilk with milk and vinegar, some say 1 tablespoon to 1 cup of milk and some say 1 teaspoon to 1 cup of milk. Another question how long do I let it sit until I can use it, where do I let it sit in the refrigerator or out on the counter?
