Peel and finely mince the garlic clove using a knife or garlic press.
In a small mixing bowl or mason jar, combine the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and water.
Whisk the ingredients together vigorously until fully emulsified, or secure the mason jar lid tightly and shake vigorously for 30 seconds to blend.
Taste the dressing and adjust seasoning if needed by adding more salt, pepper, or honey, depending on your preference.
Serve immediately over your favorite salad, or store in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 1 week. Shake before each use as separation may occur.
