Ok, a screwdriver is simple enough, but oh wow, if you use the right ingredients... I use Grey Goose Vodka and premium pulp-free orange juice and it really makes a difference.

I love screwdrivers and the grey goose is excellent vodka! A little pricy but well worth it! I had a party recently and ran out of OJ so we used up some Sunny Delight I had left and that is fantastic! That is how i make them now! Read More

Personally I think any good top shelf vodka is great. However I am not a fan of grey goose and I definitely don't think you should use it in a mixed drink cocktail. My personal favorite screwdriver vokdas are Chopin and Stoli. Stoli Orange with OJ is just perfect. Read More

Try adding 7up, sprite or similar pops to give it a twist & some fizz. Plus it will douse the heart burn later Read More

I agree that freshly-squeezed orange juice is the best especially if you get interesting oranges such as blood oranges. If you get a juicer it doesn't take that long to make fresh orange juice for a special cocktail and then you can strain out all the pulp if you like. Read More

Made the mistake of using orange juice with a lot of pulp (that was all I had on hand) I unfortunately do not like pulp so I then tried without pulp. Much better. Thanks Read More
