Steps:
- Combine all ingredients in a non-reactive dish and cover tightly. Allow olives to marinate at least 2 to 3 hours or up to 4 days in the refrigerator. (If you are only marinating them for a few hours, leave the olives in the marinade at room temperature.)
- Note: These olives are great in martinis and also double as a quick party hors d'oeuvre. If you plan on using them exclusively as an hors d'oeuvre, drizzle a little extra-virgin olive.

JOHN'S GIN MARINADE
This is my step-dad's recipe, which is incredible with beef tenderloin steaks or even less expensive cuts of meat like flank steak. The best part is, you can use it as a basting sauce while grilling.

MARINATED BALSAMIC OLIVES
These are just like the marinated olives that you purchase in the European markets...if not better. They will stay forever in the fridge. This recipe makes quite a lot of olives (6 cups), but can be scaled down in half if desired....note: plan ahead, these olives need to stay in the fridge for at least 8 hours (the more time left marinating in the fridge, the stronger the flavor will be). Prep time includes the 8 hour refrigeration marinating time.

Tips:

- Use a good quality gin for the marinade, as this will impart the best flavor to the olives.
- If you don't have any juniper berries, you can substitute with a teaspoon of dried rosemary or thyme.
- Feel free to experiment with different herbs and spices in the marinade. Some other good options include bay leaves, cloves, or peppercorns.
- The olives can be marinated for at least 24 hours, but for the best flavor, let them marinate for a week or two.
- Once the olives are marinated, they can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a month.
