In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter.
Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to let it burn.
Stir in the apricot preserves, Dijon mustard, white wine vinegar, and soy sauce until fully combined.
Add the salt and freshly ground black pepper, then stir to evenly incorporate the seasoning.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the sauce to slightly thicken.
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the sauce cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm as a dipping sauce for fondue, grilled meats, or roasted vegetables. Alternatively, transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 1 week. Reheat gently before serving.
