The Fuzzy Navel is a classic highball cocktail that is made with just two ingredients. The name fits the ingredients of the drink and hints at its ingredients, resulting in a sweet and fruity drink!
The peachy delight is composed of orange juice and peach schnapps and can be enjoyed any time of the day. The sweet duo made its debut in the 1980s to market peach schnapps in a cocktail slightly sweeter and less boozy than the established Screwdriver, which is composed of vodka and orange juice. The fuzzy navel drink is a refreshing cocktail that is perfect for relaxing at home or casual entertaining.
