Any chance this is found in green olives?

Sure, if the olives have been soaked in catnip tea...

AFAIK, it's only members of the Nepeta (Catmint) family that contain
nepetalactone, and indeed only a limited number of 'em contain much.

I know that sounds weird, but my oldest loves green olive juice.

Could be the salt? Or maybe aromatics and / or residual fat in the
juice?
