This balsamic vinaigrette is slightly sweet and savory. It is perfect for any salad. It is absolutely refreshing, and it elevates the flavors in any salad.
I don’t know about you, but every time I have a store bought salad dressing I feel awful. Most of them are full of preservatives and junk ingredients that really shouldn’t be in any salad dressing.
Not to mention that I rarely ever like any store-bought salad dressing. I always feel the need to add something to it to balance out the flavors. Even with all those ingredients, they seem to lack in the flavor department.
I grew up on homemade salad dressings. Where I came from, we did not have store-bought salad dressings. It was all homemade with love.
This balsamic vinaigrette that I created is super simple. It comes together very quickly with a very few ingredients. Here are the ingredients used in this balsamic vinaigrette:
Ingredients:
- balsamic vinegar
- extra virgin olive oil
- raw honey
- yellow mustard
- black pepper
- salt
That’s it! just 6 ingredients. You probably have all of them already on hand. All that is needed is to simply measure and put them together!
Even simpler, here are the few utensils that you will be needing to prepare this balsamic vinaigrette:
Utensils
- Mason jar with a lid
- Measuring cups
- Measuring spoons

All that is left now is to place all the ingredients together in a mason jar. Close the jar tightly with a leak-proof lid, and shake well until everything is well combined.
You can serve this balsamic vinaigrette with almost any salad. I will be sharing my Berry Greens Salad with you pretty soon. This vinaigrette is the perfect combination with it. It is absolutely refreshing, and adds a bright flavor to almost any salad of your choice.
Just make sure to give this vinaigrette a quick shake right before dressing your salad with it.
Also, can you imagine how great this would be used as a marinade for meats, mushrooms, or fish! Yum! I can’t wait to try it!
