In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, and buttermilk. Whisk until smooth and creamy.
Add the dried parsley, dried dill, garlic powder, onion powder, and fresh chives to the bowl. Stir until the herbs and spices are evenly distributed.
Mix in the white vinegar, salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
If the dressing is too thick, thin it out with an additional tablespoon or two of buttermilk until the desired consistency is reached.
Transfer the dressing to an airtight container or jar and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled as a salad dressing, dip for veggies, or with your favorite snacks.
