Preparation

  1. 1

    Chill Your Glass

    Begin by chilling your cocktail glass. You can do this by filling it with ice water and letting it sit while you prepare the drink.

  2. 2

    Combine Ingredients

    In a cocktail shaker, add 2 ounces of either Grey Goose Vodka or Bombay Sapphire Gin, followed by 0.5 ounces of olive juice.

  3. 3

    Shake or Stir

    Fill the shaker with ice and either shake vigorously for about 15 seconds or stir gently for about 30 seconds, depending on your preference for a shaken or stirred drink.

  4. 4

    Strain into Glass

    Empty the ice water from your chilled glass and strain the mixture from the shaker into the glass.

  5. 5

    Add Garnish

    Carefully place 3 blue cheese-stuffed olives on a cocktail pick and place it in the drink as a garnish.
