Gather all your ingredients for the SWEET BASIL VINAIGRETTE: fresh basil leaves, olive oil, apple cider vinegar, garlic, honey, salt, and pepper. Set up your food processor or blender.

In your food processor or blender, add 1 cup of fresh basil leaves, ½ cup of olive oil, ¼ cup of apple cider vinegar, 1 crushed garlic clove, 3 tablespoons of honey, ½ teaspoon of coarse salt, and ½ teaspoon of ground pepper.

Pulse the mixture a few times before blending on high for about 30 seconds until smooth and glossy.

Taste your vinaigrette to ensure the flavors are balanced; adjust seasoning if desired.

Drizzle the vinaigrette over salads or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
