In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the orange juice, lemon juice, and white vinegar.
Whisk in the honey and Dijon mustard until fully dissolved and smooth.
Add the salt, ground black pepper, minced garlic, dried basil, and dried oregano. Stir well to incorporate the herbs and spices evenly.
While continuously whisking, slowly drizzle in the olive oil to emulsify the vinaigrette. This should create a smooth and slightly thickened dressing.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed, adding more salt, pepper, or a splash of citrus juice to suit your preference.
Transfer the vinaigrette to a jar or bottle with a tight-fitting lid. Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
Shake well before using. Drizzle over salads, use as a marinade, or serve as a dipping sauce for grilled vegetables or seafood.
