Method
Gather all ingredients and a clean 16‑oz mason jar with a tight‑fitting lid.
Measure 1 cup of sour cream and add it to the jar.
Pour ¾ cup of hot honey over the sour cream.
Add 2 tbsp of garlic chili oil, letting its aroma infuse the mixture.
Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: The garlic chili oil's aroma rises as it meets the sour cream and honey.
Stir in 4 tbsp of ranch seasoning mix, ensuring it disperses evenly.
Add the finely chopped fresh dill (4 tbsp) and 2 tsp of red pepper flakes for heat.
Secure the lid and shake the jar vigorously for 30‑45 seconds, or stir with a spoon until the dip is smooth and uniformly combined.
Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: The dip looks smooth and evenly combined. Shake the lidded jar or stir with a spoon.
Taste and adjust seasoning if desired (extra dill or pepper flakes can be added at this stage).
Label the jar, refrigerate, and let the flavors meld for at least 30 minutes before serving; the dip will keep up to 10 days in an airtight container.
Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: Chill before serving so the flavors meld.
When ready to serve, give the dip a quick stir; serve chilled with chips, veggies, or warm with pretzel bites.
