Ingredients
½ cup mayonnaise
¼ cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
1 tablespoon sriracha
1 teaspoon hot sauce (like Tabasco or Crystal)
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
½ teaspoon smoked paprika
½ teaspoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon lemon juice or apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon honey or sugar
Pinch salt
Instructions
1. In a bowl, whisk together ½ cup mayonnaise and ¼ cup sour cream or Greek yogurt until smooth.
2. Stir in 1 tablespoon sriracha, 1 teaspoon hot sauce, and ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper.
3. Add ½ teaspoon smoked paprika and ½ teaspoon garlic powder.
4. Mix in 1 tablespoon lemon juice or apple cider vinegar to brighten the flavor.
5. Stir in 1 teaspoon honey or sugar to balance the heat.
6. Season with a pinch of salt and adjust spice level if needed.

Notes
Use Greek yogurt for a protein-packed, tangier version.
For a thinner sauce, add a teaspoon of water or extra vinegar.
Letting it chill longer deepens the flavor—overnight is ideal!
