  • ½ lemon zested
  • ½ teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 bay leaf

  • ½ cup olive oil plus extra to top off.

Instructions
 

  • Empty olives from jar into a strainer. Give a quick rinse to remove brine.

  • Add extra olive oil to fill up, and seal.
  • Turn upside down so everything is mixed up (give it a shake or two)
  • Place it in the refrigerator for 24hrs.

Notes

Note: *You can also use a ziplock bag as well. **The olive oil may get a little coagulated, so leave at room temperature for a bit to have it return to a liquid state.
