This Garlic Sauce is creamy, tangy, and packed with bold garlic flavor. Made with a simple blend of sour cream, mayonnaise, and fresh garlic, it comes together in minutes and works as a versatile dip, drizzle, or spread. The touch of lemon juice brightens everything up, balancing the richness and giving it that craveable, restaurant-style finish. We love to serve it with our air fryer french fries.
