In a medium-size bowl, combine the Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, and lemon juice. Whisk together until smooth and well-blended.
Gradually add the olive oil in a slow stream while continuously whisking the mixture to create an emulsion. The dressing should start to thicken slightly.
Add the minced garlic, salt, ground black pepper, and dried oregano to the mix. Stir well to incorporate the seasonings evenly.
Pour in the water, and whisk the dressing again until it reaches the desired consistency. Adjust the amount of water if a thinner consistency is preferred.
Taste the dressing and adjust the seasoning with additional salt or pepper if necessary.
Transfer the mustard dressing to a jar or a bottle with a tight-fitting lid. Shake well before each use to recombine the ingredients.
Serve immediately over salads, or store in the refrigerator for up to one week.
