If you like a little edge with your appetizers, Dirty Martini Deviled Eggs are the way to go. They’re briny, creamy, and just a touch boozy, thanks to a splash of gin or vodka and a hit of olive brine. These are deviled eggs with personality and they will definitely get people talking.
This recipe is perfect for cocktail parties or any get-together where the snacks should feel a little elevated. The chopped green olives add salty flavor, while the whole olive garnish gives them that signature martini vibe. You can serve them as-is or pair them with a tray of actual dirty martinis for extra fun.
Helpful Tips
- Don’t skip the olive brine. It’s what gives these their martini-like edge.
- Try a piping bag. It makes filling the eggs faster and cleaner.
- Garnish right before serving. The whole olives look freshest if added last.
