Frozen Milky Dirty Martini 🍸🫒
My other Blue Cheese Martini recipe went completely viral and with good reason! This one is similar but for with a couple of changes. The granita is amazing and really easy to make. If you love the salty, briny taste from the olive juice, the blue cheese adds an extra pop that will change your martini game for good!
Equipment
- small baking sheet
- plastic bag, or piping bag
- cocktail shaker, my favorite is the Elevated Craft Hybrid Cocktail Shaker
Ingredients
Olive brine granita (makes enough for 4 servings)
- 12 oz olive brine
- lemon zest, to taste
- 1½ oz vermouth
Ingredients for 1 martini
- 4 oz vodka
- vermouth bianco, splash
- 8 castelvetrano olives
- ½ inch chunk blue cheese, + more stuff the olives
- Olive oil, drizzle
- Lemon zest, to taste
Instructions
- Add everything for the granita to small baking sheet and freeze.
- Add a bit of the vermouth to your martini glass, swirl, discard (or save, don’t come for me lol). Place glass in the freezer for 15 minutes.
- Mash your blue cheese with lemon zest with a bit of olive. Add to a piping bag or a small plastic bag and cut the tip off.
- Stuff your olives with as much blue cheese as your heart desires.
- Fill a shaker with ice, add in vodka and a chunk of blue cheese. Shake 60-90 seconds.
- Using a fork "shred" your olive brine granita.
- Add ¼ of the granita into the chilled glass, top with your drink and add your olives.
