Instructions

Combine Ingredients: Add 1 cup fresh strawberries, 1 tablespoon honey, 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar, and 2 tablespoons high-quality olive oil to a blender.
Blend Smooth: Secure the lid on the blender and blend the ingredients together until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Season to Taste: Taste the vinaigrette and add salt and freshly cracked black pepper to your liking. Replace the lid and blend again to incorporate the seasoning evenly.
Serve or Store: Once completely smooth and well blended, transfer the vinaigrette to a serving vessel and use immediately, or pour into an airtight container and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Notes

You can use frozen strawberries defrosted overnight instead of fresh strawberries to make this vinaigrette year-round.
If the flavors are too intense, blend in a little water to soften the taste, but avoid adding too much to prevent a watery consistency.
Leftover vinaigrette can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 3 weeks. Shake or whisk before use as settling may occur.
If the olive oil thickens when chilled, bring the vinaigrette to room temperature before serving for best texture.
