Steps:
- Mince the garlic with a garlic press or a high-quality chef's knife.

- If you don't have a blender or a food processor, simply add all the ingredients to a jar with a twist off lid or even a bowl and just shake or whisk until everything's well-mixed.
- Use the dressing on a salad or as a marinade for other dishes. Transfer any leftover dressing to an airtight sealed container and store it in the fridge for up to 10 days.

Tips:
- Choose the freshest garlic possible. Fresh garlic will have a stronger flavor and be less bitter than older garlic.
- Roast the garlic before using it in the dressing. Roasting the garlic will mellow its flavor and make it sweeter.
- Use a variety of vinegars in the dressing. This will add complexity and depth of flavor. Try using a combination of white vinegar, apple cider vinegar, and rice vinegar.
- Add a little sugar or honey to the dressing. This will help to balance out the acidity of the vinegar and give the dressing a slightly sweet flavor.
- Use the dressing on a variety of salads. Sweet garlic dressing is great on green salads, pasta salads, and even fruit salads.
