Happy National Harvey Wallbanger Day!

Harvey WallbangerHere's the story (supposedly) about this drink made of orange juice, Galliano, and vodka. Harvey was a surfer in the 1950s who lost a surfing competition. He went to a bar to drown his sorrows, and drank several Screwdrivers with Galliano. He got up to leave but kept banging into things. And a drink name was born. That's one of the legends anyway.

The bar was owned by Duke Antone, and he not only came up with this drink but also The Rusty Nail. Get a Collins glass and fill it with ice. Pour 1 oz. vodka and 4 oz. orange juice into glass and stir, then float 1/2 oz. Galliano on top.

A variation on the drink is the Freddy Fudpucker. Just replace the vodka with tequila!
