Juice half a large orange (can sub in a grapefruit if you want your bevy more on the tart side), use a slice to wet and then sugar the rim. Save a piece for garnish (optional). In a chilled shaker, add in your juice, half a can of Boulevard Brewing vodka lemonade (roughly 6 oz), and add a shot (1 oz) of citrus flavored vodka. Shake. Pour with a flourish. Enjoy!
