Blueberry + Basil Vinaigrette – Easy Homemade Salad Dressing Recipe
Blueberry Basil Vinaigrette
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
- 3–4 fresh basil leaves
- 2–3 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 Tbsp apple cider vinegar (or balsamic for a deeper flavor) – I have AVC
- 1 tsp maple syrup or honey (optional, to taste) – I have neither, so I’ll use neither
- Pinch of salt
- Optional: 1–2 tsp Dijon mustard (for tang and emulsion)
Instructions:
Blend everything until smooth. Taste and adjust for sweetness, acidity, or salt. If it’s too thick, add a splash of water to thin it out. Store in the fridge for up to 3–4 days.

Can’t get enough blueberry + basil? Sip it chilled in a refreshing infused water or blend it into a vibrant green smoothie for a full-flavor experience from glass to greens.
