This was one of the first drinks i ever had. easy to make and really not very strong. great social drink but not my first choice for getting @#$%ed up. ;-)

Try it with citrus vodka

I make my Screwdrivers with Absolut Citron and they taste much better than with regular vodka. Overall this is a fairly dull drink, but refreshing on a hot day and easy to make when you just don't feel like whipping up a proper cocktail.

Use a mandarin flavored vodka like absolute mandarin.

Good if you like to drink, but don't like to taste the alcohol

I really have to force myself to drink something if I can taste the alcohol, but all I taste in the screwdriver drink is the orange juice. I downed 4 or 5 drinks while playing the flippy cup drinking game, and let me tell you I was feeling pretty good after awhile. I'll take vodka over tequila any day. Tequila makes me depressed while vodka makes me giggle!

For more punch! o/

Instead of Vodka use Pure Grain. That'll get the job done faster and cheaper.

Lots of fun to Mess up

I switched it around and did 5 oz vodka with 2 oz orange juice hehe that was yummy and its a very easy drink when you dont wanna take the time to make something else

Even more basic

Can't get any more basic than this drink. One suggestion: place three ice cubes in highball glass, add 2 oz Vodka, glance across room at orange juice bottle. Enjoy.

Classic

You can never go wrong with a tall screwdriver!

I invented a good'un

My version of a screwdriver I came up with last night: 3/4 shot vodka, 3/4 shot Triple Sec, 2 shots orange juice, and a few drops of lime juice. Shake with 6 or so ice cubes, pour into an old-fashioned glass. It's freakin delicious. A little bit smaller and stronger of a drink than a standard screwdriver, I think.

Only the best

I only drink Grey Goose vodka, tastes amazing with freshly squeezed orange juice. If you don't have the time to do that, get Naked orange juice.
By the end of the night you'll want to get naked yourself too- so go for it. Haha.

Freakin good!
