Screwdriver
ส่วนผสม
- Vodka 2 oz
- Orange juice 4 oz
วิธีทำ
Mix in a highball glass with ice. Garnish and serve.
The Screwdriver is an IBA Unforgettable classic made with just two ingredients: vodka and orange juice, served over ice in a highball glass. Its enduring popularity stems from its simplicity, approachability, and the way vodka's neutral character allows the fresh orange juice to shine. It is one of the most widely consumed cocktails in the world.
History & Origins
The Screwdriver's origin is disputed, but the most cited story holds that American oil workers in the Middle East during the 1940s stirred vodka into orange juice using a screwdriver when no other implement was available. The drink was first mentioned in print in a 1949 issue of Time magazine, and its use of vodka helped propel that spirit's rise in the American market. The IBA recognizes it among its Unforgettables.
Tasting Notes
Aroma: Fresh, juicy orange juice with a clean, neutral background from the vodka. Palate: Bright and citrus-forward, with the orange juice providing natural sweetness and acidity; vodka contributes a gentle warmth without adding flavor that competes with the citrus. Finish: Clean, refreshing, and citrusy with a brief alcoholic warmth.
Pro Tip
Use freshly squeezed orange juice rather than processed juice for a noticeably fresher, more vibrant drink.
