Ingredients

How to make it

  1. Build vodka and orange juice over ice in highball glass.
  2. Float Galliano on top.

Tip: Fill the glass right to the top with ice so the drink stays cold without watering down fast.

About the Harvey Wallbanger

Harvey, the California surfer who staggered into walls, was invented for a 1970s Galliano ad campaign. The drink itself is often credited to Los Angeles bartender Donato 'Duke' Antone in the 1950s.
