Just OK
I made this basic vinaigrette but added one clove of garlic. It's better than bottled but just needs something else? Maybe some honey or sugar?

Constructive criticism
The dressing in the picture looks like it broke. It doesn’t show a full volume vinaigrette. The slow drizzle should work to emulsify the dressing. Giving it a lovely texture. Also you could suggest using a funnel into the top so that oil doesn’t spatter out .. :)
