First things first: make sure all your ingredients are at arm's length. You won’t want to be scrambling to find the honey while balancing a bowl in one hand and a whisk in the other!

In a mixing bowl, add the red wine vinegar and honey. Whisk them together until the honey is completely dissolved. This helps ensure even sweetness throughout the dressing.

Next, toss in the minced garlic and oregano. Again, whisk to combine. The garlic will infuse the vinaigrette with its flavor; this step is crucial.

Now, it’s time for the hero ingredient. Gradually pour in the olive oil while continuously whisking. This process emulsifies the mixture, blending oil and vinegar into a cohesive dressing. Trust me, this little step makes a huge difference!

Finally, season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Tweak to taste, adjusting as necessary. No one wants a flat vinaigrette, so add a pinch more salt if it feels right!

This is your moment for creativity. Taste the vinaigrette and adjust any component as needed. A little more vinegar for tartness? A bit more honey to sweeten? Make it your own!
