In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add mayonnaise, ketchup, and white vinegar. Stir until smoothly combined.
Add granulated sugar, dill pickle relish, Worcestershire sauce, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Mix well to incorporate the flavors.
Slowly stir in water, one tablespoon at a time, to reach your desired consistency. The dressing should be creamy and slightly pourable, but not too runny.
Taste the dressing and adjust seasoning if needed, adding more salt, pepper, or sugar according to your preference.
Transfer the dressing to a clean jar or airtight container.
Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together, but it can be served immediately if needed.
Serve as a dressing for salads, a dip for vegetables, or even a spread for sandwiches.
