For an extra layer of flavor, consider using blood orange juice or adding a splash of Cointreau. Adjust the vodka-to-juice ratio to your preference. Some prefer a stronger cocktail, while others prefer a lighter, more refreshing drink. Using freshly squeezed orange juice will significantly enhance the flavor compared to store-bought varieties. Chill your glass in the freezer for 10 minutes before making the cocktail for an even more refreshing experience. If you don't have a jigger, a standard shot glass is approximately 1.5 fluid ounces.
