How to Make the Best Apple Cider Vinaigrette
This apple cider vinaigrette is the perfect everyday salad dressing that comes together in just minutes. Made with raw apple cider vinegar, it’s packed with healthy probiotics and has a bright, tangy flavor that pairs beautifully with any salad greens. The touch of honey or maple syrup balances the acidity while the Dijon mustard helps emulsify the dressing for a smooth, creamy texture.
What makes this vinaigrette so special is its simplicity. With just a handful of pantry staples, you can skip the store-bought dressings loaded with preservatives and additives. The fresh garlic adds a lovely depth of flavor, though you can easily swap it for shallots if you prefer a milder taste. Simply shake everything together in a mason jar and you’re ready to drizzle.
Keep a batch of this versatile dressing in your refrigerator and you’ll always be ready to elevate a simple salad into something special. It’s also wonderful drizzled over roasted vegetables, grain bowls, or used as a light marinade for chicken or fish.
