Philadelphia Cream Cheese is shaking up cocktail hour with a bold new release: Philly-tini Olives, a limited-edition product that swaps the traditional blue cheese filling for the brand’s signature cream cheese. Created in collaboration with Mediterranean ingredient purveyor Divina, these Greek green olives are stuffed with smooth, tangy Philadelphia cream cheese—offering a more approachable, less polarizing alternative to the classic dirty martini garnish.
Why the Dirty Martini?
With savory martinis trending across social media and bar menus, Philadelphia saw an opportunity to reimagine the cocktail’s most iconic accessory. “Just because someone doesn’t like blue cheese doesn’t mean they should have to miss out on enjoying a dirty martini,” said Kelli Srivastava, Senior Brand Manager for Philadelphia. The Philly-tini Olives aim to deliver the same briny punch with a creamy, mellow finish that appeals to a broader range of palates.
Where to Find Them
The Philly-tini Olives are available exclusively online through Divina Market in two-pack bundles priced at $15, while supplies last. The launch is timed perfectly for World Martini Day on June 21, making it a timely addition to summer bar carts everywhere.
While designed with martinis in mind, these cream cheese-stuffed olives are also being touted as a versatile snack. Whether served on a charcuterie board, tossed into a pasta salad, or enjoyed straight from the jar, Philly-tini Olives are a playful reminder of just how far cream cheese can go beyond bagels and cheesecakes.
