- 1
Prepare the orange juice
Roll the fresh oranges on the counter with your palm to loosen the juice. Cut the oranges in half and using a citrus reamer or juicer, squeeze until you have about 120 ml (roughly 3 medium oranges). Strain the juice through a fine mesh if you prefer a smoother texture (optional).
- 2
Chill the glass (optional)
If you like a colder drink, fill the highball glass with ice water while you prepare the juice. Discard the ice water before building the cocktail.
- 3
Build the cocktail
Add 4 ice cubes to the empty highball glass. Pour 50 ml vodka over the ice, then add 120 ml fresh-squeezed orange juice. Stir gently with a bar spoon or long spoon for 10–15 seconds to combine and chill without over-diluting.
