For the Dip:
1 cup mayonnaise (or Greek yogurt for a lighter option)
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup finely chopped dill pickles (plus 1–2 tablespoons pickle juice)
1 teaspoon dried dill (or 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped)
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt (adjust based on pickle brine saltiness)
Optional: 1–2 teaspoons lemon juice for extra brightness
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Combine the Base Ingredients
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise (or Greek yogurt) and sour cream until smooth and creamy.
2. Add the Pickle Magic
Stir in the finely chopped dill pickles, pickle juice, dried dill, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. If you want a tangier flavor, add more pickle juice or a splash of lemon juice.
3. Chill for Maximum Flavor
Cover the dip and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Before serving, give it a quick stir and adjust consistency with a little more pickle juice or mayo if needed.
4. Serve & Enjoy
