Pit and grind olives, and press them back together in the form of one giant olive. Wrap with something like several layers of rice paper to hold shape.

       You like rice paper in your martinis?

       You like martinis? That's so ... gay ...

       Martinis are just an excuse to drink nearly straight liquor cold, with just a hint of something else in it. I like mine on the wet side - that vermouth has to be good for something.

       If you build an giant olive, the giant Martinis will appear.   

       Like "Field of Dreams".   

       or   

       If you build it, they will die of alcohol poisoning.

       Vermouth is good for deglazing pans. An open bottle will keep better than an open bottle of white wine.   

       I have wondered about the maximum attainable size for olives. How big are the biggest? Do they get as big as avocados?

       Some recently-created polyploid olives can grow larger than a hen's egg.

       Yes, but then you'll need correspondingly bigger martini glasses. And they will get warm before you can drink all of it.
normzone, Feb 13 2014
  

       No, you just have to drink faster.

       A martini is just a headache in a cute glass. I'll take plain olives, please.

       //It's only gay if you stir.// does that apply to other gentlemanly pursuits as well?
