Tips & Warnings

• Use as little ice as you possibly can while still keeping the drink cold. The more ice you use, the more your drink will be diluted, and the less flavor your Orange Squash Cocktail will have.

• Don't use fresh-squeezed orange juice with pulp. It doesn't really lend itself to this cocktail as well as other kinds of orange juice.

• Always drink responsibly and in moderation.

• Never drink and drive.
