Peel the garlic cloves, and place in boiling water for 2 minutes, drain and cool. Place the garlic cloves and herbs in a food processor (you can mince or crush by hand too) with a few spoonfuls of the mayonnaise. Combine the sour cream and remaining mayonnaise in a bowl. Add the processed or minced herb and garlic mixture and blend well.

This is better served after several hours or the next day.
