The Best Dill Pickle Dip Recipe
What makes for the best Dill Pickle Dip ever? Let’s see…
- Simple, easy ingredients
- Packed with 3 kinds of dill: dill pickles, fresh dill, and dill pickle juice!
- Perfectly tangy
- Thick ‘n creamy texture
- Easy to customize: While I recommend using 1/4 cup of dill pickle juice, you can start with just 3 tablespoons and build up on that depending on the thickness you desire.

Dill Pickle Dip Ingredients & Tips
- Cream cheese + sour cream: the combination of these two creamy and tangy ingredients makes for a perfectly balanced dip that’s mouthwatering. Make sure to soften these two ingredients for a well-blended dip that’s easy to make.

Dill Pickle Dip Ingredients
Optional Toppings
Serve with
- In a medium bowl, use a large fork to stir together softened cream cheese and sour cream.
- Add in dill pickles, fresh dill, and garlic salt. Stir and fold until very well mixed—here, I switched to folding with a spatula.

- Refrigerate up to 4 hours or serve immediately.
- Transfer to a serving bowl and optionally top with dill and pickles. Serve with baked tortilla chips, potato chips, pretzels, air fried onion rings and more.
Notes
*You can sub the fresh dill for 1 teaspoon of dried dill, but the fresh dill has a brighter taste.
For a spicy kick, stir in chopped jalapeños or use cajun seasoning in place of garlic salt.
