In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the apple cider vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper.
Whisk the ingredients together until the honey and mustard are fully dissolved.
Slowly drizzle the olive oil into the bowl while whisking vigorously to emulsify the dressing.
Stir in the fresh parsley and chives for a burst of herbaceous flavor.
If you prefer a creamier texture, whisk in the Greek yogurt until smooth and well combined.
Taste the dressing and adjust the seasoning with additional salt or pepper, if needed.
Transfer the dressing to a jar or airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors meld.
Shake or whisk the dressing before serving. Drizzle over your favorite salad or use as a dip for fresh vegetables.
