Notes

A few tips I’ve picked up:

Use fresh orange juice if you can. It makes a big difference.
Adjust the amount of Galliano to taste. More for a sweeter touch, less for a lighter flavor.
If you prefer, add a slice of orange for garnish.
Feel free to experiment and make it your own.
These tips should make the Harvey Wallbanger an exciting addition to any party or relaxing evening. Cheers! 🥂
