As a dip, you may want to keep the sauce thick. However, thin the fresh sauce with a few tablespoons of milk or heavy cream for a light dressing.
Add lemon zest for extra citrus flavor.
Use only fresh dill for a more mild dill flavor or only dried dill for a stronger taste.
Skip the mayo and use only Greek yogurt for a healthier sauce.
Use reduced-fat Greek yogurt and mayo, if preferred.
Sour cream is another alternative to plain yogurt or mayonnaise.
Add Dijon mustard for extra tanginess and another layer of flavor.
Replace the garlic powder with fresh garlic, minced.
