How to connect to local docker daemon?

I set up minikube and ran eval $(minikube docker-env). Now after stopping the use of minikube I am getting Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at tcp://192.168.99.100:2376. Is the docker daemon running?. I no longer want to use minikube and instead I want to use my local docker daemon. How do I switch back to using localhost?

In theory, just exit your current shell and create a new one. That is, either log out/log back in, or just close the terminal in which you ran eval $(minikube docker-env).

Runing that eval ... command simply sets up the DOCKER_HOST environment variable in your current shell, which tell Docker to connect to something other than the local Docker socket.
