In a medium-sized mixing bowl or a mason jar with a tight-fitting lid, combine olive oil, balsamic vinegar, lemon juice, and Dijon mustard.
Add the honey, minced garlic, salt, and freshly ground black pepper to the mixture.
Pour in the water to help emulsify the dressing and provide a lighter texture.
Whisk all the ingredients together if using a bowl, or seal the mason jar and shake vigorously until the sauce is fully combined and smooth.
Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more salt or pepper to suit your preference.
Transfer the soy-free sauce into a clean bottle or jar and store it in the refrigerator until ready to use.
Shake well before each use, as natural separation may occur.
