Cherry & Orange Champagne Vinaigrette

June 30, 2009 · WCC Administr@tr · Leave a Comment

Salads are a favorite this time of year and my Savory Triple Cherries Jubilee captures the sweetness of summer cherries in a vinaigrette. Bright orange notes work nicely with cherries as I infuse sweet dark cherry juice with a muscat orange champagne vinegar, making a light and fruity dressing. Drizzle this over a bed of fresh mixed greens with sweet mandarin orange segments and fresh pitted cherries, and you’ll have a colorful salad full of summer flavor!

Whisk all the above ingredients except the olive oil in a medium bowl. Slowly drizzle in the extra virgin olive oil while continuing to whisk. Season with salt and pepper to taste; set aside.
