This vinaigrette was really delicious when prepared as is, but to cater to my audience, I took it in a sweeter direction and added about a loose 1/4 cup dark brown sugar and a small chunk of sweet onion. (I also served it with a side cup of raw sweet onion if they wanted to add it to the salad.). If one wanted to up the sweetness a little more, I would think candied pecans would be a good add. And bacon. Or candied bacon. Just because bacon. :) (Of course, this all depends on the sweetness of the strawberries. Mine were not very sweet and needed the additional sugar, but this can be easily adjusted to personal taste.)
