Mix some of the ingredients: Combine softened cream cheese with sour cream, mayonnaise, the olive juice, garlic, onion powder, and some salt and pepper, in a large bowl.
Add the drained chopped olives and blue cheese: Stir these ingredients in carefully, so as not to break up the blue cheese any more.
The finishing touches: Put the mixture into a large martini glass or serving dish, and garnish with chopped green olives, blue cheese crumbles and some chopped chives, then serve.

Substitutions and Variations

The dairy part can be tweaked if you wish, so in place of the sour cream and mayonnaise, you could use just mayonnaise, just sour cream, or even replace both with Greek yogurt (the unflavoured kind, of course).

Feel free to mix in some cayenne pepper, goat cheese or chopped blue cheese stuffed olives, if you like, or mix and match different kinds of olives for an olive garnish.

Another idea, to add more depth of flavour, would be to sauté minced onions in oil until soft, and then deglaze the pan with vodka or gin (whichever you like in a martini co*cktail). Once the mixture is cool, you can mix it in with the cream cheese mixture.

How to Serve this Blue Cheese and Olive Dip

Pair this recipe for dirty martini dip with your favorite potato chips, crackers, pretzels, melba toast pieces, vegetable crudites, or tortilla chips. You might like to make other dips to serve, in case some people aren’t keen on olives. Examples include baked artichoke dip, guacamole and smoked bacon cheese dip.

How to Store Dirty Martini Dip

Store: Leftovers will only keep for a couple days before the ingredients separate, so try to only make as much as you need.
Freeze: This dirty martini dip with blue cheese doesn’t freeze well because it’s so dairy-heavy, so make it fresh for the most delicious results.
