If you’re the type who always says yes to extra olives in your martini, this dip was made for you. Dirty Martini Dip takes everything you crave about the cocktail—the brininess, the tang, the bold flavor—and turns it into a creamy, crave-worthy appetizer. It’s the kind of dip that catches people off guard in the best way: familiar, but totally unexpected.
This Dirty Martini Dip is ultra creamy with a tangy hit from sour cream, a savory punch from garlic and onion, and loads of chopped green olives bringing that signature martini vibe. If you’re into blue cheese, adding a handful of crumbles takes it to the next level. It’s one of those dips that feels a little fancy, but it takes almost no effort.
Helpful Tips
- Use room temp cream cheese: It mixes smoother and faster, so you won’t get lumps in your dip.
- Chop the olives finely: Smaller pieces mean you get briny goodness in every bite.
- Let it chill: Giving it at least 30 minutes in the fridge helps the flavors meld together.
