I had an amazing Caprese salad years ago and I've want to recreate it ever since. I got my hands on some aged Basalmic and I'm hoping that does the trick.

That's a lovely tomato and mozzarella salad. Caprese never has balsamic. The trick is to find good tomatoes. And use lots of Evoo.
Adding balsamic is just a variation. It doesn't NOT make it caprese. This Italian pedantry needs to stop.
Ahhhhhh I forgot the olive oil! It's not too late. Thanks!
You can use balsamic vinegar, no problems with that
