Instructions

Combine base ingredients: In a medium bowl, mix together the sour cream and mayonnaise until smooth and well blended.
Add pickles and seasonings: Stir in the finely chopped dill pickles, dill pickle juice, Dijon mustard, and garlic powder, ensuring an even distribution of flavors throughout the mixture.
Incorporate fresh herbs and season: Add the fresh chopped dill, then season with salt and pepper to taste, adjusting for your preference.
Chill to meld flavors: Cover the bowl and refrigerate the dip for at least 1 hour. This resting time allows the flavors to marry and results in a more vibrant, well-rounded taste.
Serve: Once chilled, serve the dill pickle dip alongside chips, crackers, or fresh vegetable sticks for a refreshing and tasty snack.

Notes

For extra tang, increase the amount of dill pickle juice slightly.
This dip can be prepared up to 24 hours in advance and stored in the refrigerator.
Use paper towels to drain pickles well if you want to avoid excess moisture in the dip.
Garnish with additional fresh dill before serving for enhanced presentation.
This dip pairs especially well with potato chips, pretzels, or crisp cucumber slices.
