Ingredients
- 8 oz Cream cheese
- 1 cup Sour cream
- 2 tbsp Mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp Dry vermouth
- 1.5 cups Green olives (pitted and chopped)
- 2 tbsp Olive brine
- 0.5 tsp Garlic powder

- 0.25 tsp Freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley (chopped)

Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise. Use a hand mixer or whisk to blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Add the dry vermouth and olive brine to the mixture, and stir until well combined.
Fold in the chopped green olives, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, fresh parsley, and lemon zest. Mix gently to ensure everything is evenly distributed.
Taste the dip and adjust seasoning if needed. For a stronger 'dirty martini' flavor, add an extra splash of olive brine.
Transfer the dip to a serving bowl, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Garnish the dip with additional chopped olives and a sprinkle of parsley, if desired.
Serve chilled with crackers, fresh vegetable sticks, or toasted bread points.
