Instructions

Combine the coconut milk, olive oil, garlic, turmeric, ginger, rosemary sprigs, thyme sprigs, lemon zest strip, and salt in a small saucepan. Warm over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is steaming and the garlic is fragrant and just beginning to soften, about 3–4 minutes. Do not let it boil.

Place the drained olives in a mixing bowl or a wide-mouth jar. Pour the warm coconut-cream marinade over the olives, making sure the herbs and garlic are distributed throughout.
