This “olive lovers only” mix from À Table author Rebekah Peppler goes great with a drink, whether that’s an aperitif for one or cocktails for a small crowd. Fragrant with orange, coriander, and peppercorns, the simple marinade is an easy way to upgrade a store-bought staple. Make it hours or even days in advance—stored in the fridge, the olives will last for about two weeks.
