In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the balsamic vinegar, extra virgin olive oil, and Dijon mustard.
Add the minced garlic to the bowl, ensuring it is finely minced for an even distribution in the dressing.
Incorporate the stevia or erythritol sweetener for a touch of sweetness without adding carbs. Adjust based on sweetness preference.
Season the mixture with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Stir to combine.
Add water to the mixture to slightly thin out the dressing for better drizzling consistency.
Whisk all the ingredients together vigorously until the dressing is emulsified and smooth.
Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed, adding a bit more salt, pepper, or sweetener according to preference.
Transfer the dressing into a clean glass jar or bottle with a tight-fitting lid for storage.
Shake well before each use to ensure the dressing is well mixed.
