Beat the cream cheese. Using a handheld mixer beat the softened cream cheese until smooth.
Add the sour cream, garlic, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, and fresh dill. Mix until fully combined.
Add the clams. Dain the minced clams, but keep the juice and set aside. Stir the minced clams into the dip until well-mixed.
Stir in the juice. Use the reserved clam juice to thin the dip slightly to your desired consistency. I usually use about half of the remaining juice. Chill the dip for 1 hour in the fridge before serving.
