Some things are just better together. Peanut butter and jelly. Cheese and wine. And of course, olive oil and balsamic vinegar. When paired thoughtfully, these two pantry staples create flavors that are greater than the sum of their parts. At Saratoga Olive Oil Co., we love helping people discover pairings that turn everyday meals into something memorable. Whether you are dressing a salad, glazing roasted vegetables, or looking for a unique gift idea, these combinations will open up a world of flavor.
Each has its own unique qualities. Olive oil adds richness and body, while balsamic vinegar brings brightness and a hint of sweetness. Together, they balance each other beautifully. Pairing them allows you to highlight flavors, experiment with cooking styles, and even make healthy eating feel indulgent.
Tuscan Herb Olive Oil + Traditional Balsamic Vinegar
This duo is the ultimate crowd-pleaser. Pour over a Caprese salad, serve with warm bread, or use as a simple marinade for chicken.
Garlic Olive Oil + Sicilian Lemon Balsamic Vinegar
Perfect for roasted vegetables or grilled shrimp. The savory garlic combined with the citrusy zing of lemon vinegar creates an instant spark of flavor.
Blood Orange Olive Oil + Fig Balsamic Vinegar
Bright, fruity, and refreshing. Use this pairing in salads with spinach, goat cheese, and walnuts for a seasonal favorite.
Chipotle Olive Oil + Raspberry Balsamic Vinegar
Sweet and smoky. Toss over roasted sweet potatoes or drizzle on fish tacos for a game-changing topping.

Rosemary Olive Oil + Black Cherry Balsamic Vinegar
Savory rosemary with the sweetness of black cherries makes an elegant combination for lamb or roasted root vegetables.
Experimenting is half the fun. Start with a high-quality extra virgin olive oil and a flavored balsamic vinegar that you enjoy. Taste them individually, then blend a spoonful to see how the flavors complement each other. From there, think about how you might use them: a salad dressing, a glaze, or for finishing a dish. The more you mix and match, the more confident you’ll become in creating your own pairings.
Olive oil and balsamic vinegar pairings also make wonderful gifts. A pairing set from Saratoga Olive Oil Co. is ideal for housewarmings, weddings, or holiday baskets. It’s a thoughtful gift that's both useful and guaranteed to be enjoyed.
