If I just wanted to drink olive oil for its health benefits but find it bitter, is there a mixture to make it more pleasant?
Seasoning olive oil for drinking?

Health benefits are calculated based on normal use. Drinking 100 percent fat is not normal use and the flood of bile your liver will release to to deal with it will probably make you feel sick.
That said, not all olive oils are bitter. Some are grassy. Try to find a shop where you can taste different ones until you find one you like. And use it in moderation, like everything else.

Yep, it's surprising how different olive oils can taste.
I've been to a tasting once. Felt real weird to dunk a piece of bread just in oil and taste. But some were real good!

Cooking4Fun, not only what GG has said, your body will likely rid itself of any oil that it cannot handle immediately, and it's exit will probably be faster than when you drank it.
