How to remember it

Legend says oil workers stirred vodka into orange juice with a screwdriver. The simplest tool in the box: one spirit, one juice, no garnish.

Drink family: Highball · Spirit + a tall mixer, over ice

Built in the glass: the spirit goes in first, the mixer fills it.

Same shape on your sheets: Cuba Libre, Harvey Wallbanger, Caribbean Breeze, Bocci

Memory tricks are written for this app; only the acronym is printed on the sheet. Drink families are Gary Regan's, from The Joy of Mixology.
