Tik Tok Boat Dip
Load your chips up with this Boat Dip and enjoy some mouthwatering Mexican flavors – including a kick of heat! This easy-to-make dip recipe is one you’ll surely have on repeat once you get your first taste!
This dip gets its name from it being an on-the-go snack since you simply just dump the ingredients, mix, and enjoy! The creator, whose Tiktok Video went crazy, is seen enjoying it on their boat!
And since you want quick and easy snacks to devour up while you’re out on the water, boat dip was born! However, boat or not, this taco flavored dip is a must-make to enjoy anywhere – poolside, at cookouts, or just on a Saturday at home!
Boat Dip Ingredients
Skip the oven and enjoy this no-bake Boat Dip Recipe! To whip it up you need just 4 easy ingredients:
- Sour Cream – I mix the sour cream and taco seasoning ahead of time. This way they have time to chill in the refrigerator together, building a much better flavor for this dip!
- Taco Seasoning – Grab your favorite store-bought packet or use your own homemade taco seasoning recipe!
- Rotel – With green chilies. Make sure to drain it before adding it to the dip! Otherwise, the dip will turn out runny!
- Shredded Cheese – We like ours with shredded cheddar cheese. However, a Mexican-style shredded cheese blend would also be great in this recipe!
How To Make Boat Dip
- Combine the sour cream and taco seasoning in a medium bowl.
- Add the drained tomatoes and shredded cheddar cheese. Stir until fully incorporated.
- Serve with corn tortilla chips, vegetables, or potato chips!
Even though this recipe is designed to be an easy dump and mix dip – I find that it has the best flavor after chilling for at least 2 hours. This gives the spice mix time to meld with the sour cream. If your goal is to make this on the go, I recommend add the taco seasoning to the sour cream in the container and mixing then combining the rest of the ingredients when ready to enjoy for better flavor.
What To Serve With This TikTok Dip Recipe
There are so many mouthwatering ways to enjoy this Boat Dip! Here are a few tasty ideas to get you started:
- Chips – I think tortilla chips taste best with this dip, but you can also try it with potato chips, pita chips, Fritos, or even pretzels!
- Fresh Vegetables – Carrots, celery sticks, sliced peppers, or cucumbers would all be great with this viral dip recipe!
- Crackers – Try scooping this dip up with wheat thins, Triscuits, Buttery Rounds, or Ritz!

Boat Dip Recipe FAQs
Yes, it does! Simply double each ingredient and you’ll have a larger portion to share with friends and family.
You can simply choose a spicier packet of taco seasoning or add in a chopped jalapeno. If you really like a kick of heat you can do both!
I think full-fat sour cream tastes best in this recipe but you can certainly use fat-free if you’d like!
No worries, you can just make your own! To do so mix the following ingredients together:
– 1 tablespoon chili powder
– 1 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 teaspoon of each: paprika and ground cumin
– 1/4 teaspoon of each: garlic powder, oregano, onion powder, and crushed red pepper flakes.
You can tell the dip has gone bad if it has an unpleasant smell or an off taste. I’d recommend noting when the sour cream and cheese goes bad before making this dip to ensure it’s not accidentally made with ingredients that are expired or about to be expired.
Though some dips can be frozen, I don’t recommend freezing this Viral Boat Dip Recipe. If frozen, the consistency and texture will be off once thawed.

Just made this and doubled the recipe for a family picnic!
It was a hit!
I’m wondering though if it would be just as good without the shredded cheese? I don’t feel that it adds much additional flavor.
What do you think?
I’m a big cheese fan, but it would definitely still be a flavorful dip without it!
Very good and easy to make!
Delicious—fast—easy
I love a quick recipe that I usually have all the ingredients on hand! It was a hit on July 4th!
Such an easy dip using ingredients you most likely have on hand! I can see this served either hot or cold, with pretzels, chips, or even ontop of some grilled chicken. 10/10 for me!
So glad you liked it!
This dip is super easy to make and taste awesome. I served it with tortilla chips but decided to put some on the southwest burgers I grilled. WOW, it was so delicious. I see endless opportunities to use this dip! Recipe is definitely a keeper!
Oh yum, great idea to use it on the burgers!
Just made this for the weekend get together & so far it tastes great, I’m sure it will be even better after it sits
Hi Rebecca .. thanks for the prompt reply ..
Randy
Want to make this but am concerned that with the Rotel tomatoes it may be to hot/spicy for me .. your thoughts please ..
Thanks
Randy
We really didn’t find it all that spicy, but you can use the kind without green chilies if you’d like.
They make mild rotel.
Everyone loved it! Actually took on a pontoon for a group! I used mild Rotel and Mexican shredded cheese
This recipe was really good and so easy. I made it ahead of time so it sat in the fridge for a bit. So good.
I’m so glad you enjoyed it!
I would love to make it
