In a bowl, stir together crème fraîche, chopped olives, olive brine, olive oil, garlic, and lemon juice.
Mix until smooth and creamy.
Taste and adjust brine for extra martini-style saltiness.
Finish with black pepper and herbs and maybe a few halved olives for aesthetics, serve in a martini glass for extra glam!
Serve with toasted baguette slices, crackers, endive leaves or crisp cucumber rounds.
Enjoy!
