Notes
Tips & Variations
- Tone down the vodka. If you're looking for a less strong vodka flavored cocktail, you can go ahead and just top your glass off with 7up instead of measuring exactly 4 oz.
- Add a garnish. Pop a lemon or lime wedge or wheel on the rim of the glass for a little color. You can also add a squeeze into your glass for some fresh citrus zing.
- Stir gently. There is a lot of soda in this cocktail, so mix it gently so that it doesn't get too fizzy.
- Don't make in advance. Make this just in time to serve it so that it is full of bubbles and doesn't go flat.
- Use flavored vodka. Some good choices are cherry, lime, orange and citron.
