Garlic and Chive Dip

Royal Garlic & Chive Dip 👑🧄✨

Darlings, this is no ordinary dip—it’s a crowning jewel for your chips, veggies, and anything else begging for a touch of saucy brilliance. Quick, simple, and packed with flavor, it’s a recipe fit for royalty (and snack time).

Why This Dip Became a Royal Staple

When we first moved to the United States, the King—ever loyal to his garlic dip—was appalled to find that Orlando supermarkets simply didn’t have the right version of his beloved condiment. In the UK, it’s a breeze to pick up, but here? Not so much. So, this Queen rolled up her sleeves, donned her apron, and got to work. After a few attempts (and a lot of tasting), this perfect recipe was born. Now, it’s a non-negotiable in our fridge, always ready to rescue a snack, sandwich, or chip in need of saucy enhancement.

Pro tip: Keep it in a sealed container, and it’ll last for up to 3 glorious days—if it even survives that long!

Ingredients

½ cup mayo (the Queen’s creamy essential)
½ cup sour cream (for that luscious, tangy flair)
2 tablespoons fresh chives, finely chopped (because fresh is always best)
1 large garlic clove, minced (just one? Or are you feeling bold?)
Squeeze of Lemon (because everything tastes better with a bit of zest)

Garlic and Chive Dip Instructions

Regally Mix It Together:
Combine the mayo, sour cream, chives, lemon juice and garlic in a bowl. Stir like the true culinary queen you are—smooth and saucy is the goal!
Taste the Royalty:
Take a delicate (or not-so-delicate) taste. Does it need a pinch of salt? Maybe a crack of black pepper? Adjust to your liking, darling—it’s your kingdom.
Chill & Serve:
Pop it in the fridge for 15–20 minutes to let the flavors mingle like guests at a royal banquet. Serve cold with your favorite dippers!
