Classic Orange Base
Sparkle & Finish
Method
Prepare & Shake
- 1
Combine base ingredients
Fill a cocktail shaker halfway with ice (about 3/4 cup). Pour in 6 oz fresh orange juice, 2 oz vodka, 1/2 oz triple sec, 1/4 oz simple syrup, and 1/4 oz fresh lemon juice. Add 2 dashes of orange bitters if using.

Shake
Secure the shaker and shake vigorously for 10–12 seconds until the outside of the shaker is cold and slightly frosty. This chills and lightly dilutes the mix for balance.
Serve & Finish
- 3
Prepare glass
Fill a highball or Collins glass with about 1 cup of fresh ice (or a single large ice block).
- 4
Strain
Double-strain the shaken orange mixture into the prepared glass over the ice using a Hawthorne or fine mesh strainer to remove pulp and small ice shards.

Garnish & serve
Garnish with an orange slice or wheel on the rim and an optional mint sprig. Serve immediately with a straw. For a bottomless-style refill offer, keep a pitcher of pre-mixed Classic Orange Base (without soda) chilled and allow guests to top with fresh soda on each refill to maintain fizz.
