Ingredients
  

1 cup sour cream

1 cup Greek yogurt

1/2 cup fresh cilantro, finely chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

Juice of 2 limes

Zest of 1 lime

1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste)

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

1 jalapeño, seeded and finely chopped (optional, for heat)

Extra lime wedges and cilantro leaves for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Base: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the sour cream and Greek yogurt. Stir until smooth and well mixed.

    Add Fresh Flavors: Incorporate the finely chopped cilantro, minced garlic, lime juice, and lime zest into the bowl. Mix until all ingredients are evenly distributed.

      Season It Right: Sprinkle in the ground cumin, salt, and black pepper. If you like a bit of heat, add the finely chopped jalapeño. Stir again to combine all the flavors.

        Taste and Adjust: Give your dip a taste. If you desire more zing, add a bit more lime juice or salt to suit your palate.

          Chill: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the dip into an airtight container. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to an hour to allow the flavors to meld together beautifully.

            Serve: Before serving, give the dip a good stir. Transfer into a serving bowl, garnish with extra cilantro leaves and lime wedges on the side for decoration. Enjoy it with tortilla chips, fresh veggies, or as a spread in your favorite wraps!
