I don't know if the garlic was too spicy or what but when I processed everything, it was very watery, and spicy. Not diggin the flavor too much. But I think the problem was with the garlic and maybe I should have used more sour cream to take some of the spiciness out. I will say that when I tried it, it hadn't chilled yet so that remains to be seen. If once it chills it tastes better, I'll update my comment. I was quick and easy to make though.
