Combine Ingredients: Start by whisking together the white cranberry juice and red wine vinegar in a medium bowl until well blended. This mixture serves as the tangy base for your vinaigrette.

Add Shallots and Garlic: Gently fold in the finely chopped shallot and minced garlic. These ingredients will infuse the dressing with a burst of flavor, adding depth and complexity.
