The Harvey Wallbanger is a cocktail that was apparently invented in 1952, though the earliest known reference to it only dates back to 1971, making it a comparatively recent cocktail. Though it was believed to have been created by world champion mixologist Donato "Duke" Antone, this is by no means certain.
The cocktail is served in a highball glass (an 8-12 fl oz glass tumbler). The standard constituents of it are 3 parts (45ml) vodka to 1 part (15ml) Galliano (a sweet herbal liqueur) to 6 parts (90ml) fresh orange juice. The vodka and orange juice is stirred together with ice in the glass, then the Galliano is floated on the top. The drink is normally garnished with an orange slice and a maraschino cherry.
