Ingredients

• 4 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 2 tablespoons water
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

In a small mixing bowl or a jar with a tight-fitting lid, combine the apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, and honey.

Step 2

Whisk or shake the mixture briskly until the mustard and honey are completely dissolved and well incorporated.

Step 3

Slowly add the extra virgin olive oil to the vinegar mixture while whisking continuously. This will help in emulsifying the dressing for a creamy texture.

Step 4

Add the water to the mixture to further cut down the fat content and whisk or shake again until all ingredients are well blended.

Step 5

Stir in the minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Adjust seasoning according to taste.

Step 6

For a perfectly mixed vinaigrette, give it a final shake or whisk before serving to ensure everything is fully combined.

Step 7

Store any leftover vinaigrette in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to one week. Shake well before each use as slight separation can occur.
