Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 6 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves. Alternatively, use a garlic press for a smoother consistency.

Add the olive oil, honey, and Dijon mustard to the mixture.
Season with salt and black pepper according to taste.
Whisk the ingredients together briskly until emulsified, or secure the lid on the mason jar and shake vigorously for 30-60 seconds until well combined.

Use immediately or transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to one week. Shake well before each use.
