Alz Chili Lime Dressing

This is pretty close to the TGI Friday's and Pick Up Stix lime-cilantro dressing that I'm addicted to (and is a pain in the butt to try and buy from either of these restaurants).

1/4 to 1/3 cup fresh lime juice (can do a mix of lime and lemon juice).
1/3 cup honey
1/4 to 1/3 cup fresh cilantro, packed
1 small clove fresh garlic, minced
3/4 tsp fresh ginger, grated
1 large fresh jalepeno, chopped roughly
1-2 dried Arbol chilies (optional)
2 tsp balsamic vinegar
1/2 cup olive oil
2 tsp corn syrup
1 package Splenda
About 1/3 cup Newman's Lime dressing*
Kosher salt to taste

*I think this optional; maybe just adding some more lime juice will do the trick, but I really think this makes it closer to the restaurant version.

Mix all in blender or food processor until smooth. Keeps in refrigerator for about a week or so. May be able to freeze in portions; I have not tried that yet.
