Chesapeake's Favorite Quaff

The Orange Crush is hot stuff along the western shore of Maryland's Chesapeake Bay. Not the Nehi of old, but the adult beverage of today. Versions ranged from Wow! to Huh? depending on whether the bar tender used fresh or canned orange juice.

Here's the recipe as prepared at the Chesapeake Beach Resort.

Chesapeake Bay Orange Crush

1 1/2 oz. orange vodka
2 oranges, juiced
1 1/2 oz. Triple Sec
Sprite

Start with the vodka, add the Triple Sec, then the orange juice and finally, top with Sprite.

Call it your anti-cold tonic.
