1/3 cup sugar (I used half sugar and half truvia)
1/3 cup rice wine vinegar or white wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon your favorite chopped flavoring herb , such as dill, celery seed, basil, oregano (optional)

3 or 4 baby cucumbers , sliced
2 or 3 medium round radishes (or one French breakfast or carrot style radish), sliced
1 small red bell pepper , diced
2 chive flowers , florets removed from the flower head base on the main stem (or 1 tablespoon chopped chives)

Whisk all of the vinaigrette ingredients together in a small bowl until the sugar is dissolved. Set aside.
Add the vegetables and about half of the chive florets to a medium bowl and toss lightly. Drizzle the vinaigrette over the salad and give it stir. Sprinkle the remaining florets over the salad as a garnish.
Chill for at least an hour. Can be made a day ahead.
